And then the day came,
when the risk
to remain tight
in a bud
was more painful
than the risk
it took
to Blossom.– Risk by Anais Nin
A lovely favorite of mine and a strong reminder to never hold back. Take risks, be outgoing, because keeping it in is much more difficult than letting go.
I love this quote. First heard it on Alicia Keys’ album The Element of Freedom. Found it very inspiring.
