My musings on making memories was triggered by a reminder of just how limited our life span is. The inevitability of death is something that everyone must acknowledge, our time is most definitely running out from the moment we are born. Its OK – this isn’t intended to be a morbid post to the blog – simply a working through of some thoughts related to a heightened awareness of our own mortality.

Where Does Performance Enhancement End?
One of the things that you can guarantee when it comes to “big” championships like the Olympics is that there will be a few headline hogging drug cheats exposed. At this particular edition of the Games the issue has been made even more high profile (if that is possible) by the recent revelations regarding the fidelity of the testing process in Russia.
You Don’t Know Me!
The subject of memories continues to throw up new nuances. The trigger for today’s musing is hearing (a number of times about a number of different people) “I didn’t know that X used to….” – its a phrase that is heard a lot these days.
What Do We Leave Behind?
None of us is immortal – as someone (probably lots of people) once said “everybody dies” – although few know beforehand exactly when that is going to happen. A seemingly growing trend is to generate a “bucket list” – things to do before I die – always assuming I get round to them in time that is…. The longer the list, the less chance that you will actually complete it!
