You are absolutely right about there being no need to eat four Sarah Lee cakes at every meal and gain an extra hundred pounds. And I agree with you that people who do that are likely unhappy about the way they look and feel.

However, we can live life without skydiving and swimming in pools, or at least private pools. If you kept getting on a horse, falling off, getting injured and wanting to get back on the horse, I would probably recommend two things:

1. See a doctor to find out why you got injured every time. Most people who fall off horses aren't injured, at least not seriously.

2. See a psychologist to find out why you keep wanting to get back on a horse, even though you do it so badly you injure yourself every time.
