I have always lived my life in the moment. I have never been afraid to do something. I love trying new things. Even things that are dangerous and totally outragous. I have always been taught to live my life to the fullest and never be afraid of something. If you have a chance of doing something you take that chance as it might never rise again for you to do. So that is how I have lived my life.
Just because you are 42 doesn't mean that you can't go skydiving. There is a woman I seen on the news a couple weeks about that was in her 90's jumped out of a plane and said that she wanted to go again. You are the only person that will do this. Take the course and go have fun. You never know you might get a thrill out of it. But being afraid/scared of doing something is no way to go through life.

You should start off small and work your way up to it. There are good places to go and there are bad places to go to get training. But remember your first jump is always tandam and their is a qualified person there to draw your chute for you. Good luck to you.

Unfortunately, I've done that. It was part of the training I received in the military. There's NO way I would do that unless I had to again.

Well, I would like to skydive too..wow! That is one of the things in my bucket list. I would like to jump off the plane and fill the wind on my face, the sensation of flying , floating and hovering over the air, looking down at the green and brown patches slowly becoming bigger as I descend. That would be exhilirating... but I fear that I would not know where and how to land - a minor problem which could be solved easily. I will skydive, I will find means to do it. Good luck to me and cheers.

I will always want to ride on a Honda CBR 1000 Fireblade and at 200 km/hr to make a whelly on the rear whell but i'm too young to do it, and it is so riscant on the public road because of the police. Maybe i will try it when i will be older...

I wanted to try swimming in a deep water... I can only manage 5 to 6 ft.. I got so scared when I go beyong six ft. but I am always imagining myself to swim in a very deep water, wether it's in the pool or in the sea..
I wish I am a very good swimmer!
love & light.

Well, the one thing I have always wanted to do, but am afraid to try is hang gliding. When I was pregnant with my daughter, we went to Cancun, Mexico. You could see hang gliders over the ocean at the resort where we stayed. I thought it looked like it would be fun. You know, like a bird gliding. I always wanted to know what that would be like. The real problem I have with that is I have to have my feet on something solid. What if I land in the water, instead of on the beach? My feet would definitly not be on solid ground if that were to happen, and this scares the crud out of me!
