Falling like alice...

About Me

To laugh is to risk appearing a fool, To weep is to risk appearing sentimental To reach out to another is to risk involvement, To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self To place your ideas and dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss To love is to risk not being loved in return, To hope is to risk despair, To try is to risk to failure. But risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing is nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, But he cannot learn, feel, change, grow or live. Chained by his servitude he is a slave who has forfeited all freedom. Only a person who risks is free. The pessimist complains about the wind; The optimist expects it to change; And the realist adjusts the sails.

My Interests

Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero.Seize the day, put no trust in tomorrow.
-Horace

I'd like to meet:

Demand not that events should happen as you wish; but wish them to happen as they do happen, and you will go on well.

Remember that you are an actor in a drama of such sort as the author chooses, – if short, then in a short one; if long, then in a long one. If it be his pleasure that you should enact a poor man, see that you act it well; or a cripple, or a ruler, or a private citizen. For this is your business, to act well the given part; but to choose it, belongs to another.-Epicteteus

A step back in time

Parkade

Somewhere downtown the lights shine bright, To hide the darkness afraid of the light. But 10 stories up the light disappears, and in this solitude you discover your fears. In the abandoned parking lot...
