Risk

Taking risks, which is really what life is all about, almost by definition requires one to come out of one's root – to leave the ground and fly to the stars. As JK once said, the real source of inspiration for all of us is in the heavens and not in the ground, and I think this is John's genius – he had the faith, intelligence and heart to leave the earth when the time was right and to really fly, surrendering to the living essence of the work, and allowing that work total expression.
