Taking Risks vs. Playing It Safe

Breathe and take one step at a time.  Often my fearful nature wants to see the whole pathway, obstacles I will encounter and how I’m going to get there before I move forward.  This needing to know paralyzes me and prevents me from taking risks.  I have regretfully missed out on opportunities and not taken chances when it was later shown to have been not only safe but could have been beneficial for me.  Playing it safe seems to rarely be the best policy.  There are moments when trust in myself, others, and my higher power are necessary.

 

I choose to release my controlling grasp and allow myself to take risks. Rather than seeing life through the lens of fear and potential harm, I want to see the possibility, magic, and blessing this day holds.
