Risk, life, balance, happiness, and learning

My life is out of balance. Because of things that happened to me when I was very young, things that were out of my control, I have not taken enough risks in my life. I have feared for a while that it is too late.

I’ve come to realize recently that it is only too late if I do nothing with this knowledge, if I continue to live my life the way I have been: safe, not making waves, not asking for what I want, not taking risks because (historically) risks have not turned out well.

Life is an experiment. Sometimes you win; sometimes you lose; sometimes it rains. Without the experimenting part there is no point.
