Take the Risk: Would You?

Some people indulge themselves in taking a risk. They intended to do it for the sake of reaching their personal goals in life. “Can we blame them?” I think there is nothing to take the risk of moving forward and trying to reach their ultimate dreams. It’s another story if taking the risk of life that might in danger their lives. For instance, the photo was taken during the Buzkashi event in one of the far flung areas in Tajikistan. These two men went to the river and wash themselves up. “Would you take the risk and take the chances on something?” Image Credit: Shavkat

Taking risk in life is necessary. But knowing the river or any water body is dangerous and going there for small purposes can't be appreciated.

I agree. It wasn't always taking the risk. We have to think twice before doing it.

those 2 men are really taking the risk but i hope they were great swimmers so they won't be eaten up by the water current. i recall a news about a Fil-American who swam and was taken by the strong waves until his remains were found far from his diving point. i can no longer take any risks because i have a heart condition, but i also believe i have achieved something now.

I do think that you had proven your abilities for a couple of times now. We don't need to plunge into a risky situation. Regardless, you can handle it grace if encountering the same risk situations.

@Shavkat I used to be a risk taker and not I take it easier now. I can't remember what I did but just know I was a risk taker.

At this point, I am still a risk taker. Of course, I have to think a couple of times before doing it.

@Hannihar If I am just thinking of myself, I will go for the risk. Unfortunately, I need to be serious at this point in time.

You have a point. We also need to consider the options before taking the risks.

@LadyDuck I am not at physical risk. Taking the risks when accepting certain jobs. When I accepted the mission in Tajikistan, I took the risk.

For some reasons, we can still be on a safe side than jeopardizing our own life because of such risk.

I also love taking the risk not physically. I could use my power of the mind to deal with these risky situations.
