...has been a part of my life for many years. I just can't get enough. It seems that I have the quest of always overthrowing my last achievement, and reaching out for something even more challenging, crazier. Where others would take a step back and say 'wait a minute, I am not really sure if I want to get into this', I jump ahead.
Fearless. Thriving in excitement, swimming in adrenaline.
According to Dr. Brainscan, the key to my reckless behavior is the last word of the previous sentence. Adrenaline. While adrenaline is naturally produced in high-stress or physically exhilarating situations to improve our chances of survival, it also gives a depressed mind what it needs to keep running. To be adrenalized takes away the blues and makes your mind go into overdrive. It is addictive.
But there is something more besides the chemical addiction. We learn how to live and how to survive. We learn to stand at the edge. We gamble and we enjoy it. And this defines us as much as our addictions.
But, wait a minute... Is that REALLY different from the chemical addiction? Where does the circle end and where does it begin? Does it really matter?
Whatever.... Never mind. I love it, and I am riding high on a new challenge.
