This is a question that came from the GH forum on the boards but after responding, I realize that I'm starting to lose that "thrill" in life as well.

It just seems as if I've lost that certain "edge" that I've once had. I've always been known by many of my friends as a risk taker & my friends have even called me a daredevil once. I LOVE riding on any type of bikes, dirt bikes, motorbikes, the whole nine. I also like to skateboard too but now those certain activities doesn't seem to mean as much to me anymore as it once use to. I use to think & feel that I was once a risk taker but now, it seems like everything I do now is, how should I say...................routine. That's not the way that I felt awhile back & I don't like feeling as if my life is boring. I've always been a very free-spirit, use & take live to your advantage type of guy but lately, it's like I don't feel that way as I once did.

But then again, life is nothing but obstacles each & everyday as well. After what's happened to my brother & seeing what has happened to those poor innocent victims & injured victims who attended or attends VA Tech, it's just put that reminder in my head we must live life to our advantage. It's like my mom say, she always use to tell me that you should spoil yourself at least once everyday & do things that you've never done or just do things for yourself to make you feel like you have some self-worth & take advantage of the experiences that are available in life. She would tell my sister, "If you have more than enough money, you should buy that new dress & maybe even buy yourself some new shoes to go along with that dress. Heck, even if you feel like skydiving or bungee jumping one day, as long as your safe you should go for it", haha.    But that's something that she has told me & my siblings since we've gotten older & I have followed that saying pretty much since my teenage years.

It's like the old saying, "Life is too short". & that's why we should all live it up to the fullest. I just needed to say this because I just feel like I need to experience that adrenaline rush that I use to so I can get that certain "edge" back. Maybe I should go skydiving or bungee jumping one day to get that feeling again.   LOL

BTW, these smilies are soooooooooooo awesome. LOL
