Thought for the Day

I offer a thought here that I read out of the UUA Handbook/ (reading 658)

To laugh is to risk appearing the fool
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental
To reach out for another is to risk exposing our true self
To place our ideas-our dreams-before the crowd is to risk loss
To love is to risk not being loved in return
To hope is to risk despair
To try is to risk failure
To live is to risk dying

Seems to fit my life and John and Elizabeth Edwards too.

Speaking of, Barack Obama is going to meet JRE in Chapel Hill today. Should be interesting what portends out of that conversation.

Have a good day, BW readers.

UPDATE: another long thoughtful piece--read David Mizner's post at the Daily Kos on what went wrong on Edwards' campaign strategy. It's very good.
