Dying young in midair

[flexagon]

A friend of TBC's died last weekend in a car accident, and invincible Steve Irwin too. It really makes me think how pissed I would be to die young and not see some of my longer-term plans play out.

Also, I realized lately that I might be bad at jumping into handstand because I'm bad at generating force when I jump, period. Once I was good at that, but all these years of slow-movement exercise might have taken their toll. Time for a few plyometric exercises maybe.

I have similar thoughts, but I'm hesitant to voice them since I don't think most people would see my life as lived very much in the moment. (I think I probably live more in the moment / for the day / etc than it seems to people, but I question the balance too, even so).

I will be thinking about this more.
