    This is the only body you get. It will inevitably wear out. The worse you treat it the faster it will wear out.

    Keep in shape. Eat right. Don’t take stupid risks. Listen to your doctor. And modify it to your hearts desire, but analyze your desires.

    Someday with fortune you will be old. I’ve spoken to a lot of old people. The things they say they regret aren’t things like tattoos, piercings, or transitioning. They regret not doing those things more often. But they also regret eating poorly and not exercising. They regret the injuries that now cripple them. And they regret not enjoying their time.
