People often talk about the importance of taking risks to advance and develop in life. Different people define risk and set its 'sane' boundaries in different ways. What is 'normal' for one is a 'too costly risk' for another. For one person, talking to a stranger is a risk, and for another, perhaps buying the wrong shoe…
Just a couple of days ago, I redefined risk for myself. Now, I believe that Life is Risk. To live is the riskiest thing one can ever do! Just imagine all the layer upon layer of work needed to produce a 70kg, 1.74cm walking and talking and thinking man from two cells not even visible for a human eye! Every single step is a huge risk in an inherently chaotic and entropy-loving universe! We all carry a tremendous amount of Risk, just by our mere existence; yet we choose to take it for granted and worry about risks such as buying the wrong shoe or talking to a stranger!…
How strange!
