taking the plunge
to take the plunge, to accept risk is to seek a quality of life not freely handed out. It's climbing to the top of the apple tree for the choicest fruits. In due time, the more one risks the more enjoyment and pleasure they find in it. I believe T.S. Eliot said it best.
"Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go."
- T. S. Eliot
