The Risk
Risk is everywhere. I tend not to like risk. However, it is no surprise that great things in this world are never without this. In investing, a high element of risk is taken in order to have a large gain in interest. However, the flip side is that you could lose your entire principle and then some. The concept is quite simple (when you keep it in non-human terms, that is).
However, in the humanly real world things are a lot harder and so are the odds. Sometimes, things tend to get worse before they get better. It's hard because these things affect other people. For instance, I'll take a risk on trying see eye to eye with someone. In order for this to happen, I may have to bear my soul in order to tell where I'm coming from. Sometimes, hurtful things have to be looked at in order to settle them. There are so many ways for me to get rolled and for me to be reeling in pain. These things are hard.
So why do them in first place? Well, it comes down the age old question of whether things are really worth it. Having issues stuck in your heart isn't really healthy (for you or other people). If you do, you place yourself in a position of being superficial and it just doesn't seem right. In addition, carrying something in your heart only buries it. The awful thing here is that these things resurface and the high likelihood of you blowing up on someone remains present. Plus, the older you get, the likelihood of you pinpointing an issue and resolving it becomes that much more harder.
I guess I'm learning some hard lessons here. Forgiveness, even at least in your own heart, is necessary. You need to realize that your actions are not for self gain and be convinced it is the right thing to do. Sometimes things have to get worse in order to get better (and the latter is no guarantee).
I'm writing this because I took a chance on something. I took a chance because I thought it would help. I'm not sure if it was received in that fashion, however. As of right now, I don't feel good. To be perfectly honest: I feel terrible.
