I guess I could give you some deep talk about mortality and how we are all in control of our destinies or something like that, but you and I would both know I'd be bullshitting. I think that anyone that isn't afraid of death is a damn fool. I dunno maybe it is the fact that we could die at any moment that makes life so amazing and exhilarating sometimes. I guess that true freedom from death would be to live without regets so that when we would die we would know that we did the best we could and nothing more. But that's like creating a communist society that actually worked, it's not gonna happen. Whenever I get depressed or really moody over something it always helps me to talk to someone about it. I dunno about you, but if you do need to talk I'll be there for you. Call me and chat if you want. (303)518-2704 That's the best reassurance I can really give.

if you go through life being afraid of death you wont live life to the fullest. Also, the longboarder was probably being stupid and trying to show off and not being careful, or maybe it was some sort of accident. But I don't think you have to worry about an accident to come to you, unless you do a lot of stupid dangerous things every day.
