Fear is temporary. Regret is forever.
My heart was pounding. The music was
pumping. Everyone was cheering and so excited. There was this intense build up. There was an incredible rush of adrenaline. I knew I was not going to back out. I was so ready to go. Ready to
soar. My feet were tied together. All of a sudden I'm
on the edge looking out. Mostly trying not to look down. It felt like I
couldn't hear anything. I was listening for the cheering. The encouragement I
needed. Then the countdown: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 BUNGY! I jump. More like flip, off
the world's highest commercial bungy jump at 216 meters high! Flying through
the air. Aware of everything but nothing. Then swinging down below. Time seemed to take forever. Then, Serenity. Tranquility. After the music was too far to hear, nature surrounded me and
there was quiet. I was truly amazed. In between wondering when the person was
coming to pull me up I could not believe the beauty that I was seeing. I listened to the sounds of the water rushing down below. I could
not even comprehend what I had just done. So awesome. Totally unreal. Everyone
asks if I was scared. I can't even remember if I was. It was unbelievable.
This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
