THEME: RISK EVERYTHING

Some leave their homes, families, and belongings.
Some leave a rubble of hopes, dreams, and aspirations in their wake.
Some leave their hard earned savings and borrowed money at the tables.
Some leave a life of security and comforts for a life of creative uncertainty.
Some leave their body spent and broken with only trophies to help through the pain.
Some RISK EVERYTHING

Are they heroes or fools? Should they be shamed or celebrated?
