Breathing is a pitfall.
In the first few years, you'll learn and experience the most amazing things ever. In the next part, you'll go through so many emotions such as, but not limiting to: depression, hatred, helplessness, etc, just trying to figure yourself out. During your 'golden years', you'll have the time of your life, making friends and falling in love. In your adult life, you'll go through good times and bad, and life will seem like an unpredictable roller coaster. As an elder, you'll spend your time regretting things you hadn't tried, trying to rebuild burned bridges, and trying catch up with your family, but you'll look back at all the good times and wish you could go back.
....Then you stop breathing.
You went through all that knowing the end would come at any point and never knowing what would happen to your soul once everything was over.
Breathing is a wonderful, beautiful, riveting, disgusting, maniacal, hideous, pitfall.
