“Life serves the the risk taker.”

If life serves the risk taker…then why do people refrain from you taking risks.

It seems to me, that risks have been the only way for progression.

Why then do many of us choose not to risk?
Is it the gamble? The outcome? The responsibility?

If the gamble is too high and the responsibility outweighs the risk itself and the alternative…why then does it mean the people who choose not to risk are no longer served by life. Assuming that ’served’ means get what you deserve for taking the risk.

Why must we take risks to get what we want? Why must life be considered a gambit? Why does life have to be won? Is competition and the race for the prize a natural instinct? Why is life all or nothing?

Why can’t we just live, All and nothing.
