cocheese 0 #1 July 2, 2004 At 100 jumps or so, I remember asking myself . "what is it all about ? Do i really have it figured out ?" Ya know . What is skydiving all about ? I can't explain what i mean. But i have talked to others about it. About "when did YOU figure it all out?"... and to know what it's all about. Somewhere around jump 200-300 for me. Where everything was good and there was no more questioning the game and wondering if i knew what it was all about.Does this make any sense ? or am i really stretching for a new topic.

skybytch 273 #2 July 2, 2004 Depends on how you define what it's all about. The way I define it, I think I know a little bit about part of what it's all about. I don't know what it's all about yet. Doubt I ever will. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VanillaSkyGirl 6 #8 July 2, 2004 Skydiving... It's a way to find pure exhiliration. It's a spiritual cleansing. It's a way to experience total freedom. It's a way to push ones' limits and to find one's potential. It's a way to express oneself. It's a way to bond with others. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
