So-called Type A personalities are risk-takers...or so we are told.
I don't know about that.
I know that people aren't easily categorized into neat little folders of behavior.
I know that some of us are very very reluctant to TRY NEW THINGS while others have a sense of adventure.
How about you?
Are you a person who TRIES NEW THINGS?
Tell us what you've tried that is new to your life, lifestyle or tastes.
For myself here it is.
I was urged by my cousin to buy a bicycle and I didn't want to do it.
I had all those "practical" reasons such as "I'll fall off." "I'll get hit by a car." "it will damage my prostate." etc.
The important thing is this: I went to a bicycle shop and test rode one.
INSTANTLY it changed my mind.
I bought a Diamond back hybrid 7 speed bicycle and really enormously enjoy going out almost every day riding and exploring.
It has changed my life!
It is FUN. Do you know how hard it is to have FUN when you are 65 years old? :)
Okay, your turn.
Are you a person who TRIES NEW THINGS or not?
If you are, what NEW THING have you tried and how did it work out?
I also was urged to go on on of those free dating sites (Plenty of Fish). I did--much against my own best judgement.
It was fun and an interesting rediscovery of myself. I met some great people.
I made one good permanent friend, too.
NEW THINGS=changes that come to our life that make it more worth living, imho.
