Somewhere in the middle of it all, you got to take your chances. Life must never be a flat, straight road. Those bumps and turns must also be experienced to convert this into a journey of maturity and growth.

If you seek growth in life…take your chances. Don’t play it safe all the time. Don’t go to a fortune teller seeking to know the future, its probabilities, or what works and doesn’t work, or what should be done to keep one safe and what must be avoided.

How can you ever grow by trying to keep yourself safe?

Grow, not just in the material sense but also spiritually and emotionally.

If you are afraid to take a shot at the unknown, the unfamiliar, one that’s distant from your comfort zone, you will always remain where you are. May be, safe and secure but never mature.

You cannot make the most of life if you want to feel safe all the time. You cannot grow in any way if you are afraid of the unknown, the uncertainties, the surprises or even the shocks.

Real growth is in all kinds of experiences and it is these varied experiences that make you a new person, a better person, a richer soul. It is these varied experiences that help you crack the tough algorithm of life and it is these varied experiences that prepare you for something higher.
