Bungee Jumping

Bungee jumping (or bungy jumping) is an activity in which a person jumps off from a high place (generally of several hundred meters/feet) with one end of an elastic cord attached to his/her body or ankles and the other end tied to the jumping-off point. When the person jumps, the cord will stretch to take up the energy of the fall, then the jumper will fly upwards as the cord snaps back. The jumper oscillates up and down until the initial energy of the jump is dissipated. (from wikipedia)

random word = random thought

bungee jumping = Gourami experience

i dove fully into the experience, giving so much of myself into it. got to know a lot of people, got to have a really different experience, got to know myself better. but the jump is over now and i have to go back to my world. i have to take what i can get and i did but life has to go on. when one bungee jumps, the high will be experienced for only a moment but will always be a wonderful memory. that experience is over now. life goes on.

in a broader life application sense, many experiences are like bungee jumps. We fall. we dive. we crash. we plunge. but always with a string attached. always with a string to pull us back to where we were before the jump. after the jump, it may seem like eveything's back to normal but in truth, the high will always remain with you.
