you roll off the bed and get up to go brush your teeth “not looking forward to the day we’re too old to do stuff like that” and it hit me, like why don’t we go jump off of stuff while we can?!!? instead we mumble and complain about being tired or having a headache or having to get up or exercise forgetting we have the MEANS to do those things. how cruel and crude. our bodies decline but the temptation is to not take advantage of every green and living second, to not rejoice in the still new growth. instead we make ourselves older than we are and so keep ourselves from being truly wise.
