Feeling comfy and settled? Successful but unsatisfied? What secret thing do you want to try but are afraid to risk? If you knew you could not fail, what would you try next?
I'd try kite surfing! I've watched them flying through the air beneath the Golden Gate Bridge, and could almost feel the wind in my hair, the sea spray on my skin, and the adrenalin pumping through my veins, as if I were the one jumping the wake of an enormous passing freighter.
It's entirely possible that what I'm told is correct, that I'm too old, not strong enough, lack the skills and coordination...but so what???
Sometimes we don't pursue a dream because we're "experts" and to try something new would mean someone might see us not being our most perfect self. I think this leads us to leading partial lives of caution.
I know for sure I'm going to try kite surfing soon.
What do you want to try? I want to know because maybe I need to add that to my list too :-)
