Do I have to do something, or can I just watch?

My granddaughter asked me to come with her and 'see something'.  I quickly asked, "Do I have to do   something, or can I just watch?"  Then I paused and laughed out loud.  "This is exactly how I approach life...." I said to myself....."Do I have to do something, or can I just watch?"  It's much less scary to stand back and watch -  then to stand up, step in and "DO SOMETHING".  There's no risk in watching.  There is risk in getting involved.  I'm just sayin'....
