I’ve always wanted to _________________but I’ve never been brave enough.”
@IreneVincent This is a question that was asked and I had to think about it a bit before I replied. The idea is to fill in the blank so here goes....
"I’ve always wanted to go sky driving but I’ve never been brave enough.” I watch it on TV and I have seen it at various community fairs and I always think that it looks like so much fun and would be such a thrill but then I hear the stories of times when things went wrong and I can't make myself do it. I am just not brave enough because I fear I would be the one who would have something go wrong.
I read stories about people in their 80s and even 90s who go sky diving because it is something they always wanted to do so I guess you are never too old! Maybe some day I will get brave enough but I guess time will tell.
I will never say never because anything is possible.
Has anybody here been sky diving before or would you like to?

@Happy2BeMe Two of my sons have been sky diving. I don't think I would like to do that, though.

@thelme55 your son is very adventurous, and the mother in you is forever praying for his safety.

Bungee jumping is another thing I would like to try. It looks so thrilling.

Sky diving is not for me. I'll just settle to look up at the clouds and count the bunnies and duckies above.

I am way too afraid of something going wrong and splatting on the ground so I will say I am never going sky diving

It will be a very awesome thing to do! I would like to do it together with my boyfriend someday in the future. On the other hand, I am not that brave. In fact, I rode a roller coaster with my boyfriend before and I was very afraid. I could not open my eyes. I was just screaming on the whole ride. I wonder how could I go sky diving in the future.

@Happy2BeMe Yes, I think so. It is my personality. I take challenges but when I am already on it, it's like it will be my last day on Earth.

Nope! Sky diving is not on my bucket list. Scratch that. Scratch mountain climbing. Scratch walking on a tight rope. Scratch being a trapeze artist. Scratch anything risky like that.

@Happy2BeMe - I had 11 kids. That was enough risk for me.
