I once crossed the Rio Grande here in late winter one day I was out fly fishing.
I thought for sure that I was going to die. The feeling of all that water rushing past your legs along with the lack of secure footing is really terrifying.
I never watched the show. I just sat on the couch next to my wife as she watched it for the last six years. I was usually browsing the web on my phone watching video of parrots riding bicycles.
That being said, what I probably would have got out of last night’s finale is that relationships are important and ultimately being with the person that you love is way more important than anything else in the world.
Certainly way more important than getting all your questions answered after watching a crazy tee-vee show for the last six years.
I am very grateful that I have my wife to sit next to and not watch tee-vee with.
But heart disease is the leading cause of death among women in the United States. It does not nearly seem to get as much attention as breast cancer.
I wonder why that is?
Probably because cancer usually involves long periods of treatment with discomfort and suffering for the patient and their family. There is a real tangible ordeal that cancer patients go through.
Those with heart disease probably just have a heart attack and die. Dramatic, but not much with the “long period” of suffering.
Still, you would think heart disease would get more play.
Who knows?
We are all just passing time anyway until the asteroid hits teh earth and we all perish in horrible but amazingly spectacular deaths.
