Very wise. There are many of us who want to "experience life to the fullest, to see and experience all there is to see and experience, with some obvious exemptions". What we often aren't aware of at the time is that to choose one life you give up another which is often more fun and worthwhile, leading to more accomplishments and long term satisfaction. Robert Frost addressed that in his poem, "The Road Less Traveled"".
The road through life is a series of value judgements. We often do something just to exoperience it only to later learn it experienced us instead.
Indeed.
I think that the above comment sums up what newzjunkey and I were trying to convey, also.
Your entire post is well-stated.
