"La vie elle-même est un risque et celui qui ne risque rien, ne fait rien, n'a rien, n'est rien et ne devient rien. Ils peuvent éviter la souffrance et le chagrin, mais ils ne peuvent tout simplement pas apprendre et ressentir et changer et grandir et aimer"
— Soren Kierkegaard
Simplified Meaning:
Taking risks is a natural part of life. If someone never takes any risks, they end up missing out on opportunities and experiences that make life fulfilling. Think of someone who is afraid to travel. They might avoid the dangers of getting lost or dealing with flight delays, but they will also miss out on seeing new places, tasting new foods, and making memories. By staying in their comfort zone, they don't suffer problems, but they also don't get to grow as a person, learn new things, or truly enjoy all that life has to offer. In the end, without taking any risks, they miss out on the richness of life, such as feeling deep emotions, forming connections with others, and achieving personal growth. For someone to truly live a full life, they must be willing to step out of their comfort zone and face uncertainties.
