'Whats a risk?', i ask. and he said 'an opportunity'.
' then why a risk and not an opportunity?'
to that, he replied, ' i believe u knew the answer already b4 u asked.' And he was rite. i did know. Cos u may fail. thats why. Its tat simple.
And i asked,' why take a risk?'
He looked at mi and said,' why not?'
and i instantly knew the answer again. gain. profit. benefits all struck my mind at once.
but i was puzzled. 'But why the fear then? arent u supposed to be takin a risk only when u have nothing to lose and everything to gain?'
he smiled. ' must u?'
i was at loss for words. ' then why? why risk losing when u noe u cant bloody afford to lose at all?
he said. 'becos none who take risk would want 2 lose. or believe that they may lose at all. Are u not taking a risk when u ask mi this question? R u not making the assumption that i already noe them b4 u asked?'
again, i was struck. i didnt occur to mi tat way. that i was already taking a risk; a risk of assumption when i asked him. i oni asked him when i was sure he knew....
he laughed..... and i knew i had to search for the answer miself. that the answer all along lies within mi.till then i will continue my search.....
