Risks

Two scenarios, two options

Scenario 1:

I could rip my heart out, place it on a platter between a burger bun, add tomatoes, lettuce, cheese and mayo, with some fries and a drink on the side.

Would you:

  • Pick out my heart, wash it off and put it on a pedestal with a protective shield around it? or would you
  • Pick up my heart burger and sink your teeth in it bursting all veins and arteries, squeezing my four chambered heart into a mushy fluid, which passes through your system as fast as you can eat it?

Scenario 2:

I could slowly remove my clothing and stand before you as bear as I can spill my guts.

Would you:

  • Run out of the room to call your friends to come have a look? or would you
  • Cover my shivering body with trust and confidentiality?

Which do you choose?
