It wouldn't be any fun without me. I welcome and embrace and relish fear. Life is an awesome roller coaster ride. The problem is that there really is nothing to be afraid of so I have to try and convince myself that there is so that I get a thrill out of it, you know what I mean? It's weird. For example, I wrecklessly took a walk through the forest one night knowing full well that there were bears out there. I shouldn't have done that because I could have got killed. It turned out that I got the scare of my life because I walked right into a bear's den. The bear and I shit ourselves. I scared it and it scared me and I think we both must have laughed so hard afterwards. We're both like, " Whew! That was close! " It got my heart pumping, that's for sure. I guess I'm a thrill seeker. I love looking Death in the eyes because that's when I feel most alive. And there needs to be a me there to experience it all.
