Greeting followers, today's Deep Thought is about adrenaline. Adrenaline is is a hormone and a nuerotransmitter which causes the body to speed up your heart and lung rate. It comes up in FIGHT OR FLIGHT response. Most of the time its FIGHT for me. I feel this a lot because I do a lot of physical activity. Then I can jump higher(uber hops), run faster (insert comment about black people here) and am stronger. It feels like I'm flying. The speed aspect is like you are the Flash from DC Comics (without the crime-fighting part). It also comes with the "thrill of the chase" or with video games. I feel that if you are gifted with extreme athletic ability, you should take advantage of it. When you are able to beat your opponents and leave them in the dust, those are the best feelings, it is akin to invincibility. You're just like, "YEAH!! COME GET SOME!!!" They look at you in envy and sometimes fear. There's a USC shirt that says, "LET THEM HATE SO LONG AS THEY FEAR!" That's kinda how I feel it. They don't like me when I show up at a basketball game or a football game or a track meet but they fear my presence and they try and steer clear. The stare down is the best part, especially when you have transition lenses(the stuff that make your regular glasses or sports goggles into sunglasses. They make your face unreadable and when you stare someone down, you can feel the chills and you feel the adrenaline coursing through already. The anticipation of the battle and the anticipation of the win. You KNOW it's goin DOWN!!! As soon as you step up, it kicks in, your muscles feel lighter, your breath quickens, your vision focuses to a point and when that even starts, BAM! You are GONE! You shoot, you catch, you run, or whatever and if it works out and you do well, it just heightens the feeling. Everything just goes even higher, and it takes a while to come down. It's not like being high, but it's like having superpowers. Alright, my time is up. If you want anymore Deep Thoughts respond in a comment.
