STORY STARTER

“Take your shot, stranger. You’ll only get one.”

Start or end a scene with this line of speech.

Try

Take your shot stranger, you only get one.

This is a quote I’ve been told my whole life.

When the people reading this are scared to try something, your brain tells you to not do it.

It’s a defense mechanism to an unknown world. But, sometimes you only have one try. And if you miss that opportunity, you can’t do it again.

That is why you should always be willing to take a shot and try something new to you.

You might have not tried certain foods. Try them.

You might have not tried a sport. Try some.

You might have not tried a class in school. Try it.

That is the only way you’ll ever know if you like that thing or not.

It’s better to try than to never experience the specific thing.

Who knows, maybe it’ll become your favorite thing one day.
