To laugh is to risk appearing the fool;

To weep is to risk appearing sentimental;

To reach out for another is to risk involvement

To expose feeling is to risk exposing your true self.

 

To place your ideas and your dreams

before the crowd is to risk their loss

To love is to risk not being loved in return

To live is to risk dying

To hope is to risk despair

To try is to risk failure.

 

But risk must be taken,

because the greatest hazard in life

is to risk nothing

The person who risks nothing, does nothing,

has nothing and is nothing;

They may avoid suffering and sorrow,

but they simply cannot learn,

feel change, grow, love, Live

Chained by their certitude, they are a slave,

they have forfeited freedom;

Only the person who risks is free.

 

This is essentially me, but the perspective in this poem makes one assumption that is wrong: It assumes that people don't like certitude. Everytrhing is bound to consequence, if one believes the consequence for not risking is good, there is nothing wrong with it. How others percieve them does not matter.

I was going to say something witty and big word-y retort that makes it seem like a compliment to a person, but then I thought of something else that might work. Then I went on a run on sentence, and discovered midway that it won't seem witty combined with half of that other phrase. So, since it was ruined and I didn't want to get repetitive, I went silent.

 

Yeah, I do that.

....Okay dude' date=' your an idiot.

First off, 99.99% of girls in the world, despise the fact that guys would ratehr spend time playing with cardboard cards, then talking about their mothers. And the fact that you gave her a card, to symbolize, your "faith", is just plain retarded.

You couldve spent at least given her a box of chocolates.

But no, you gave her a card, that most guys would rather jack off to then, then even talk to a girl face to face.

 

Note, I realized you said guy, and not a she, half way through typing this. But I felt like going through with this post anyway.

What the heck?

 

Here's the thing, Bloodrun. I don't care if he gave him, or her, for that matter, the freaking queen mary, or a leaf he found on the street. If it was important to you, Angel, then I say you made the right choice in giving him something that was really important to you. You tried to show him that you really wanted to be friends. I say you did the right thing, even though it didn't turn out so well for you.

 

I have a similar story to yours.

 

IT was in 3rd grade, and Yu-Gi-Oh was the big thing in the grade. I had a god card, Slifer the Sky Dragon to be exact, and some other rare cards.

 

One of my very best friends, well, my friend basically did something really stupid. When the teacher asked who did it, and the kid next to me blurted out my friend's name, so my friend thought I ratted him out. He didn't talk to me for a few weeks, and I kept trying to tell him that I didn't tell on him.

 

Finally, I decided to type him a letter. It told him that my cards that I was giving him weren't nearly as important as our friendship, and, even if he didn't believe me about not ratting him out, I still wanted to be his friend. I snuck the note and the cards in his bookbag.

 

The next day, he gave me the cards back. He said he believed me, and he wanted to be my friend again.

 

We are still friends to this day.

 

So Bloodrun, you iz wrong!

 

The defense rests...lol.[/size]
