When We Embrace Uncertainty

We welcome Sacrifice and Compromise

When We Embrace Uncertainty

The dance of days winds through paths with twists,

Where what's known and unknown quietly exist,

Life whisepers in the breeze,

"Step forward, even if you're not at ease."

Risk—a companion cloaked in odd attire,

Pushes us to see beyond, to aspire,

It's in the storms that we brave,

That we discover the courage to behave.

Sacrifice, that silent, deep-seated seed,

Sown within every want and need,

It thrives unseen beneath the soil,

Strengthening our roots through turmoil.

Compromise, that art so subtly grand,

Urges hearts to understand,

To bend, to merge, to share insight,

In search of a balance between might and right.
