Risk--A word that in a moment can mean fear or courage. In a heartbeat, make or break a person's inner strength. Yet without risk,where would humanity be? Probably not here at all. For it has taken many people to be risk-takers.
Boys, girls, women, men of all different ages and backgrounds. Their ideas that the world, in one way or another, could be better. Based from their situations or lives along with imagination, they took the risk. To step up, take a leap of faith, go where no one else dared, or to tread the unbeaten path, these risk-takers have. Look at a woman.....everytime she has a child, she is a risk-taker. Look at a child, everytime they learn a new skill, he/she is a risk-taker. Why? Because each time is different. Not every trip to the Supermarket is going to be the same. There are many factors that can change the way a situation happens. The person can have a flat tire or become the 100,000 shopper of that particular store. Yet a person will never know if they are a risk-taker unless they are challenged. Question: Would you be a risk taker? Mind you not for fame or glory or for a penny, would you?
