Falling down when you're 50+ is a HELLAVA lot riskier than falling down when you're younger.

This appears to be a blog post about risk tolerance - which of course changes dramatically depending on lots of factors. If I fall as a middle-aged person, I'm much more likely to cause permanent, irreparable harm to myself - which, maybe not worth the rewards.

> But the thing is? Falling doesn't have to be dangerous Every time you use a question mark in place of a comma? A kitten dies.

question marks for non-questions drive me crazy. when i read them i hear an annoying tone, that's all. makes me vomit.

It reads like NPR sounds.

Falling is a skill like any other - the more you fall, the better you get at it.

doing something more doesn't make you better at it. learning to do it better is what makes you better. people are quite capable of doing a lot of something without ever getting better.
