Where you see risks I see opportunities. Opportunities for emptiness to be filled with existence, whether it be a physical or emotional manifestation. Time and again our logic tells us not to tread those waters, our commonsense bids us remain in these comfortable familiar surrounding, do not disturb the dust on the unexplored path. But what is logic any way? What is commonsense? It’s that thieving feeling you have before an uncertain victory; the feeling that if you go by, that uncertain victory turns into definite defeat. The reasoning within oneself that subconsciously says, “Aim low, you are not among the elite that has the strength and skill to aim so high.” How many times have you let fear govern your decisions? Fear should introduce you to faith, and faith works best when it is blind. When you close your eyes to all the possibilities of falling and trust that God has given you the ability to walk. Life and its experiences are all a great risk. You have to close your eyes and take the plunge. Live unstoppable, like the wind. Don’t see risk. See chance.
