Interesting discussion

One thing That was said in the discussion was that people think their immortal until death is upon them and that couldn't be more true. What this means is that we don't realize how short life is until its tapping you on the shoulder. I don't remember exactly who said this but I think it was Olivia Weeks.

This made me think about how people may eat unhealthy and never workout all their life and suddenly they get diabetes or a heart attack, only then would they realize that they have to stop. That also made me think about skateboarding and how they will do almost anything until they have one bad crash and, bam! their careers over. Right now though I believe that just being a kid gives you that sense of immortality but I'll see if I think that ten years from now.

  1. i dont think that just being a kid gives you that sense of immortality but that its the fact that everywhere elderly people are shown and its the comparison of the vitality of youthfulness to teh shriveling effects of age.
