Some may call it an unnecessary risk, some may call it living life to its fullest. I have been an avid kayaker for years. I have paddled some wild rivers from Quebec to Colorado. I have lost friends to the rivers and the sky. They didn't set out to die, but rather died living life to it's fullest extent. Perusing what you love brings you closer to being alive than the comfort and safety of a protected existence in my opinion.
