“Reading is like thinking, like praying, like talking to a friend, like expressing your ideas, like listening to other people’s ideas, like listening to music, like looking at the view, like taking a walk on the beach.”

Learn a new word

I was thinking that some of the quotes and poems has quite unusual words, don't you agree?
Well most of them are quite easy but some are not. For instance this quote by William  Cowper

"The only true happiness comes from squandering ourselves for a purpose." 

William Cowper

What is squandering? Don't you wonder... or at least those of you who don't know the definition of the word. Hence I got this idea like a second ago and that was that I will link words to a definition or to youtube and stuff so that you can get more out from the entries.
The good thing is that you'll learn something new and have it all "served on a silver plate" however the downside here is that my entries might be reduced... because it will require a lot of time from my part. Although you should not be worried because I'll think about you and all my followers so that you really enjoy the collection i've found from the net.

RISKS

• To laugh is to risk appearing a fool.
• To weep is to risk appearing sentimental.
• To reach out to another is to risk involvement.
• To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self.
• To place your ideas and dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss.
• To love is to risk not being loved in return.
• To hope is to risk pain.
• To try is to risk failure.

But risks must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.
