I'd always tried to resist playing the supervirility thing. I liked showing the vulnerability of age.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Even from a very early age, I knew I didn't want to miss out on anything life had to offer just because it might be considered dangerous.
The environment I was raised in, you had to, to survive.
Life would have been easier for me if I had taken the path of least resistance.
When we were children, we used to think that when we were grown-up we would no longer be vulnerable. But to grow up is to accept vulnerability... To be alive is to be vulnerable.
Nature should have been pleased to have made this age miserable, without making it also ridiculous.
I have literally played the most interesting parts since I turned 40.
I absolutely love playing the game 'Risk.'
Everything I read about hitting a midlife crisis was true. I had such a struggle letting go of youthful things and learning how to exist and have enthusiasm while settling into the comfort of an older age.
So I always figured I'd still be playing at this age.
I find age such a foreign concept. I have to be reminded. I still have the extraordinary feeling of adventure, striking out into unknown fields.
