20 or more years of skiing, 3 years of snowboarding and here we go again.
I, like a fool, strap on the skis, jump on the lift and go to the top of the mountain.
I jump off the edge and my first thought is, "Holy shit, I don't know what to do."
I take a deep breath, ride it slowly and then hit my first turn.
Like running a bike, I make a few turns and they get easier and easier.
It comes back to me, and I think, "Wow, this is actually fun!"
Isn't this what life is all about?
Standing on the edge of a cliff, thinking, "Holy shit, I don't know what to do?"
Then taking a deep breath and going?
Because once you make that first turn, it feels awkward but
the second one gets easier
and easier
and easier
until you realize that you are actually having fun!
So find that thing that's been gathering dust in your garage, closet, drawer, basement and get out there and get your heart pumping a little faster.
What have you been avoiding?
