Choose to risk.

Apr 22nd, 2008 by carisse | | 210 views

will not die an unlived life.
I will not live in fear
of falling or catching fire.
I choose to inhabit my days,
to allow my living to open me,
to make me less afraid,

until it becomes a wing,
a torch, a promise.
I choose to risk my significance;
to live so that which came to me as seed
goes to the next as blossom
and that which came to me as blossom,
goes on as fruit.

Fully Alive, Dawna Markova

I am SO sorry, but I just have to share. Every time I hear the name (or the word) Sienna, I hear Kiko Matsing of Philippine children’s show Batibot in my head saying, “Ate Sieeeenaaa!”

Okay, just had to get that out of the way. Yes I am strange like that, and yes, my age is showing. *wink*
