Had a three year old tell you "Daddy I missed you today, and I love you very much"

Agreed.
When you jump straight out from a 83 meter(272feet) high crane then you really feel you're alive |

@Chandler, Haurk, and Obi-son
Almost sounds like you're saying that you haven't lived until you've faced death! |

I've never thought of it as facing death.
But I guess in a way you do. Atleast you give other people total control of your life, people you met just a few minutes earlier.
But actually being able to do that, to take that step while standing on the ledge... The feeling afterwards is awesome. The fall is great but you can get more or less the same feeling from a rollercoaster, excepts it's a bit longer. Knowing that you actually did it is a real kick though. Can't explain it... maybe it indeed has something to do with facing death.
I really don't know what point I was trying to prove anymore. |
