Quit hanging on to the handrails . . . Let go. Surrender. Go for the ride of your life. Do it every day — Melody Beattie

Many believe it is good to be careful. Honestly…I think they are right because the days are evil (especially in this generation).

However, you are “over-careful”.

You believe there are bad people everywhere, what you don’t know or refuse to accept is –life is all about risks.

When you meet a fellow human, the first thing that comes to your mind is –This person will harm me.

You need to quit thinking like that, it is not healthy! While there are bad people everywhere, always seeing the bad in everyone you meet first and not the good in them will only make you miss out on the good and sweet things of life. It is God who protects.

No matter how careful a person is in life, if bad things are going to happen to him/her they will regardless of how careful that person is. Some people have bodyguards everywhere yet still fall prey or victim to negative and unpleasant occurrences and situations.

You need to stop living in fear of what you are not even sure of. You need to start taking risks in life because that is the only way you can discover the hidden treasures, ideas, and possibilities that no one has ever seen.

You need to see the good in people, not always thinking everyone you meet wants to do bad things to you. I need you to live life to the fullest and not endure it!

Yours Sincerely.
