Abstract: As a society we valorise risk-taking. Taking risks is good - it's been drummed into every modern schoolage child. It's important to be able to put ourselves into the hands of others, and to find out first-hand what a safe level of danger feels like. It makes us feel more alive and reminds us of what life is really about. Going beyond our comfort zone, although we may not like it every step of the way, is crucial for our development. We come back from the experience stronger in ourselves, clear about what matters, and high on the trust we've found in ourselves and placed in others.
