“I was aware of the risks I was taking, but I did'nt care.”

“The more I take, the less I'm awake. The more I need, the greater my greed. The more I care, the more I'm aware. The more I give, the better I live.”

“I love you. You're everything I have ever prayed for, even when I did'nt know what I wanted.~Aiden”

“...the more risks you allow children to take, the better they learn to take care of themselves. If you never let them take any risks, then I believe they become very prone to injury. Boys should be allowed to climb tall trees and walk along the tops of high walls and dive into the sea from high rocks... The same with girls. I like the type of child who takes risks. Better by far than the one who never does so.”

“I believe the risks I take are justified by the sheer love of the life I lead.”

“Being myself includes taking risks with myself, taking risks on new behavior, trying new ways of 'being myself', so that I can see who it is I want to be.”
