Isn’t It Ironic?

The author of “100 Things to Do Before You Die” died on August 17th after falling and hitting his head at his home in Venice. He was 47-years-old. Despite it being sad that anyone’s life is cut short, it is ridiculously ironic that he died at a young age.

I’ve always wondered if people are predestined to accomplish a certain number of things on this earth, and when their tasks are complete, their time is up. To error on the side of caution, I chose to ‘not do 100 crazy things’, so that I can hopefully prolong my life. Some people call it lazy. I call it prudent. And while my life might be a little on the boring side, at least it will be on the boring side for years to come. Knock on wood. No seriously, knock on some wood for me. I hope I didn’t just jinx myself.
