"To laugh is to risk appearing the fool,
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental,
To reach out to another is to risk involvement,
To express feelings is to risk exposing your true self,
To place ideas and dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss,
To love is to risk being loved in return,
To live is to risk dying,
To hope is to risk despair,
To try is to risk failure.
But risks must be taken because the greatest
Hazard in life is to risk nothing.
The person who asks nothing, does nothing.
Has nothing and is nothing.
They may avoid suffering and sorrow, but they
Cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, live.
Chained by their attitudes, they are a slave
They have forfeited their freedom.
Only a person who risks is free."
Another great quote by Anonymous. I wish they would put all his/her stuff in a book and sell it.

thanks for the cat advice! my cat is fixed, but you might be right about him not liking the litter. actually, i wonder if he just doesn't like sharing a litter box. maybe that's it...
