THE CASE FOR BEING RECKLESS
When we were young we jump into the pool whether we can swim or not.
We have no fear. Either we swim or we drown.
Before we turn thirty, important things happen to us which shape the rest of our lives.
The first is:
We become aware of ourselves and our own thinking. We reach the age of reason.
The second is:
In a new-found maturity we begin to think in a more adult way.
We become grown up.
Recklessness and risk are not compatible with age.
Risk becomes something which must be carefully considered.
