This realization you mention is extremely odd and bizarre, yet so true.
Another thing I've come to understand is how many things I do today will, over time and through cumulative effects, have long lasting, some irreversible, effects on my body.
Obvious, yet surprising and strange when finally experienced and grasped.
- noir_lord 6y agoFor me at 40 it's cursing 16yo me for putting that motorbike through that fence and screwing me knee, 17yo me for lifting with a shoulder injury and 19yo me for playing football on wet astro-turf. It's sorta funny how the bill for something something I did over 20 years ago didn't come due until recently.
- exotree 6y agoI have been thinking about this a lot. I don’t really regret the random injuries I got from younger me being dumb on a longboard and overdoing it with weight lifting (my wrist, for instance, is going to get way worse over the years because of a bad power clean). But I’ve settled on bodies are meant to be used, not coddled.
