Even in failure there are lessons to be learned. I took a risk around 15 years ago to go freelance…it didn’t work and I lost my house. It was strange to walk out of it and give the keys to the Bailiff and to stand there at 50yrs with two suitcases and no idea of where I would sleep that night. But and the positive thing is…I’m still here…and I have gained wisdom from the experience…and I’m ok.

It makes me think of children today, who are made to wear protective visors to play conkers, egg and spoon races are often restricted to walking….as are pancake races. Three-legged races are banned….on and on. So children grow up in a sterile safe world and I think actually become more violent as a result.

Society shuns the idea of a loser – but there can be no risk without that possibility.

I just found this post through a comment made here. It was before my time with you. Of course I am one for whom “…safety is akin to death.” I’ve never understood how people just go on and on in the cultural ruts to which they were born. When I was younger and trying to tow the line I was sick and miserable. I didn’t know how to live my life. After an especially heart wrenching experience, the loss of a foster son to the system, I went into a nearly catatonic state for 6 months. I sat on the couch doing needle work to appear as if I were doing something and reading The History of Western Civilization in 12 volumes by Will & Amy Durrant to try to get perspective. My husband learned to cook and my small children continued to grow but I was not there for any of it. Finally I had a vision of a light body emerging from the primal ooze, perfect in every aspect of it’s beingness. It was I – it was all. And I realized in that moment that I had never – not once – taped into that light that was “I am”.

I emerged as a wobbly newborn into a life I knew nothing of. It was the beginning of the end of everything I had known. It was the beginning of the life I had always known. I know the fear of risk and I know fearlessness. I don’t care what THEY say, fearlessness is better. Now I am here to say, you can not be hurt through any method at all. Light bodies are forever.

Haha, how perfect that I find this post today. I have been taking some big risks in my life, and they are paying off… a few of them do fall into stupid stunt category, but mostly they fall into the category of stepping wayy outside my comfort zone and pushing the limits of myself, my beliefs, and the beliefs of those I surround myself with.
Thank you so much for your post and your reminder that the risk is worth it.

I want to take the risk of writing you..You have touched my senses Robin. I have been taking all the risks all my life, Unfortunately, I have not yielded yet the victory due me for taking such risks. I still have a mediocre lifestyle. I gambled to change my jobs thinking that I can bring things to their next level. But I just feel I need to take some more risk in order to take the price due me..Continue touching people’s lives with your blog..I’ll keep in touch..

Dear Robin,
I want you to know that these words, these words of yours were written to inspire and bring peace to some hearts, incliding mine. Its impressive the connection that I feel with your space here, cause I am in a moment in life to take big risks and the unknown was frightening me, I even wrote on my blog yesterday about it. Insecurity was knocking on my door, turning my crystal clean future into a blurry landscape. But yes, as you have beautifully said, “So when weâ€™re called to take risks we must trust that Life knows what itâ€™s doing”. Wow, that is so powerful Robin! I know life knows what it is doing. And trusting that powerful wisdom of the Universe is my favorite path towards my inner peace.
Best wishes, always!
