one of the great tragedies in life happens when we just settle for things... we settle because we lack anticipation and fail to have expectations for fear of disappointment. so we just settle for what is or for what was... even if it was good.
regret is an frightening word. the thought of living in and with regret makes me sick... so on some level we need to chose disappointment or regret... but the reality is that at least with disappointment you tried... you risked... you were in the game... the sting of defeat most times can be a good thing.
we need to shift our thinking to anticipate in life versus the fear of disappointment AGAIN trying to keep us safe and close enough but not too far.
risk is a scandalous word to me... i think because of the exhilaration that can come from it... ultimately the life that can come with it... the person we can reflect with it...
