I am missing a Gene. Both of my siblings have it to some degree, not me. I am very risk adverse. The only things I do that are mildly risky are snow mobileing and skiing. I prefer if the snow mobile is going less then 30 MPH (Pat hates when I drive). When He drives I hang on for dear life and close my eyes (and enjoy it once it is over), and some days I just stay home.
Skiing I LOVE. The first run is always awful as I am terrified. Once I have done a few runs I am great and very much enjoy myself. I just can't permanently get rid of my fear.
I'm not sure when this happened, I did want to go skydiving at some point (I was too young at the time). Maybe that 's what did it, If you stop taking risks maybe they become harder to take. What are small risks I could take to build up my tollerance? I'll have to come up with some.
David turned in his resignation yesterday to chase his dream of owning a buisness (I in no way want to buy or own a buisness). But it made me realise that I don't take many risks. (Both Lillie and David ended up skydiving by the way). I need to work on that.
