In order to freely love, it comes with some level of vulnerability. It takes courage to give your heart, when you have no idea of what’s on the other side. It takes boldness to invest yourself in another, without knowing if they will truly appreciate or value your heart. There are degrees of uncertainties involved when you share your emotions with others. It takes a leap of faith to dive into love, not knowing if the oasis you see is real or a figment of your imagination. It takes trust to let down your guard, to let someone in. Some say it’s too much of a risk, while others say it’s worth the risk. It all depends on your perspective, which is shaded with past experiences, exposure, upbringing and core beliefs. But if you chose to love, do it authentically, unconditionally, with a sincere heart and without fear. Dare to love. ADaubon
