my entire childhood I idiotically prayed perhaps everyday to be granted the ability to fly. All the way until age ~13 when not only did I get less religious but also realized via laws of physics that could never happen. I still had dreams where I could fly, and I savored them as much as I could.
but then I finally skydived. It was perfection; the clouds, cold atmosphere, blue sky. Sigh. And I have to say it's a good thing they don't let you jump all by yourself the first few times cause I would've been dead. (which frankly is probably not a bad way to go lol) I was so mesmerized and lost in the moment that I didn't even think of deploying the parachute. So thanks Mr. Instructor-strapped-to-my-butt.
But skydiving is too quick to really savor anything. My next "adventure goal" is to hang glide. Much more airtime. But since they cost a whopping $2000+, it wont be until I finish school
What was the most adventurous moment of your life?
