I was skyping with the mother today, and somehow we started talking about skydiving and other "risky" activities. My general thoughts on participating in high risk activities is to go for it. If you are happy and you are not hurting anyone else, why not?
Then I started to think about whether I would, for example, go bungy jumping should the opportunity arise. I told the mother that if someone offered me a free bungy jump, I would do it. However, I won't go hunting out these type of activities on my own until after the "prime if my life." It wouldn't be too bad going out from a heart attack mid-jump.
Then, I thought about what is the "prime of life." Is it when you're in your best physical shape? Is is defined by the height of success in one's career? Or is it just when one is happiest? I couldn't and can not decide. I guess it depends on each individual.
After much speculation, I would love to try some high risk activities. I really want to experience paragliding and sky diving! I AM GOING TO RIDE THAT ROLLAR COASTER! (Don't hold me to that, I'm a chicken.) To be completely honest, I will have to say this topic has been ended with a, "we'll see."
What's a high risk activity you've always wanted to try? I'm going to make a bucket list.
Until next time,
Sierra
