The Rescuers

Jude and Yael love to pretend to shoot the animals, bad guys, and slay the dragons. They are the rescuers! After slaying the dragon Jude said, "What should we be called Mom? The rescuers?" They like to defend and protect. They play well together. It is fun to see them make believe and pretend together. Last night they were slaying the dragons and being witches. We were also crossing hot lava!

Risks

To laugh is to risk appearing the fool,

To weep is to risk appearing sentimental,

To reach out for another is to risk involvement,

To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self,

To live is to risk dying,

To hope is to risk despair,

To try is to risk failure,

But risks must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing does nothing, has nothing, and is nothing.

He may avoid suffering and sorrow but he simply cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, and live.

Chained by his certitudes, he is a slave, he has forfeited freedom.

Only a person who risks is free.
