Cliff jumping in Colorado Springs was a thrilling experience. On a sunny afternoon, we rowed towards the cliff in our raft.

When I was ready, I walked to the edge and took a deep breath and jumped.

I went sky diving, I went Rocky Mountain climbing, I went 2.7 seconds on a bull named Fumanchu; and I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter and I gave forgiveness I’d been denying.

The age of life expectancy for an average healthy human being has been about 70 years old for the past few decades. But as society and medicine advance simultaneously, the number is expected to increase as new ideas of what people can accomplish in their elder years of life continue to be challenged. The authors aim to interpret exactly why this particular age is considered when someone dies as a time when that person has lived a “full life,” compared to when someone at a younger age dies.

The quote, “As life expectancies continue to change, so too will our collective ideas about death and its timing—not just for geniuses who write generation-defining anthems, but also the rest of us who still have unfinished business of our own,”
Skydiving has always been a major interest to me. The sport of jumping out of an aircraft and performing acrobatic maneuvers in the air during free fall before landing by parachute. You're up in a plane 10,000 feet in the air, and then the door opens and you feel the wind rush through the plane.
