"There came a time when the risk to remain tight in the bud
was more painful than the risk it took to blossom."
--Anais Nin
When the risk of losing freedom becomes more painful than
the risk and challenge of standing for it, we'll reverse our current decline.
And note: in free societies, risk is a positive word,
something taught to children and sought by all.
The right kind of risk is the
key to all real success.
But in declining societies, the word risk is
associated with pain, and children and adults are taught to avoid it.
