I am
Hannah. I have a much
much longer name but I'll leave it as it is for the sake of internet safety precautions.
I am an element that you'd never ever known, you can't find it in the periodic table cause no one has even found it - I explode in your face just like
potassium when it touches water, it's really explosive. You should really run away first before I do spark into flames and murder people. I am your modern super, egoistic woman who cares about
love,
peace and probably,
asteroids.
My favorite color usually changes in an average time span of three months so
it'd be incredibly pointless if I were to mention my current color of choice.
That's about it.
I am a certified bubble burster to be.

Taking Risks

"You have to take risks. We will only understand the miracle of life fully when we allow the unexpected to happen."- By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept, Paulo Coelho
Because life comes with many unexpected twists and turns, zigs and zags, bangs and booms, we are afraid of taking risks. We never know what might happen. There is a little voice in the back of our minds saying "What if I failed?", "What if it didn't turn out good?" and a lot of other what-ifs.
Of course, we're all afraid of failures, rejection and disappointments. All of us dread to hear "You failed", "You're rejected", "I'm very disappointed with you". Like a lump in the throat, they're very hard to swallow.
As a result, we play safe. We don't take opportunities. We hinder ourselves from making our dreams come true. But what will happen to us if we keep on hiding on our own shells?
If our future is secured, if we're all certain about things, we'd be spending our lives with days all the same - what happened yesterday will happen today. There are no surprises to be found, no treasures so seek and no dreams to fulfill. Life would be very, very stale. But since everything is possible, anything might happen. That's why there are miracles and wonders and explorations.
Risks.
A word pointing to wide horizons.
A word opening new doors.
A word with different outcomes.
My advice? Be brave. Take risks. Whatever the result may be, it's still worth the experience.
