Taking life on at full speed

It seems that as we grow older, we become more apt to bow out. I know of you do continue to take life by the horns, but most of us seem to pass on anything that's too difficult.

Seriously. Where is it that we just decide to take the easy way out? If a challenge seems too much, then decide not to do it? Take our divorce rate in this country. ASTRONOMICAL. Whatever happened to working it out. Both parties? Take the drop out rate for high schools? High school is NOT hard people! Just study a couple hours at night and you'll pass. What kind of career do you think you'll have if you don't have even a high school diploma?

Now kids? Kids are so resilient. They just GO FOR IT. Take life on 100%. Do everything with gusto.

As you can see, the Bear likes to jump. Make me think that he can jump or climb over any obstacle in his path. It's true. I try to block him. He goes under. He goes around. He goes OVER! He's tenacious.

But how do I make sure that he continues to accomplish things? To take on new avenues in his life? To keep JUMPING through life?
