People who look for excitement
and danger are foolish. Do you
agree?
The answer to the proposition can be a big “No”
though there may be quite a few who take the
opposite view, still the truth will prevail. Man
hungers for adventure for it brings him the
excitement and the resulting satisfaction.
Excitement and anticipation make life worthwhile. If
everything is as dust or as free as air there can’t be
any excitement and life would have no meaning
and man can at best be a cabbage going through a
vegetative growth.
It may be enough for the purpose of this essay to
confine to adventurous acts though there are
others which may be equally exciting.
Why does any person go through the hazards of an
adventure? It is because of their psychological
needs. We see it in children. They explore and get
into difficult places because they like excitement.
This sort of thing is quite common among school
children. Their mischief and frolic have got them
into trouble. The youth does dangerous things
because they have the elements of adventure in
them. While there is attendant self satisfaction, it
also ensures public recognition. One climbs
mountains where others have never gone; one
jumps long distances for the sake of recognition.
To get the excitement of standing on the victory
stand and getting the applause of the crowd one
goes through months and months of hard training.
What an excitement we get seeing the star artist in
the circus on the trapeze! Crossing the Channel or
climbing Mount Everest has its own excitement.
Climbing Everest and crossing the Channel have
been done by successive generations of
adventurers. Nobody now looks upon these as a
challenge; so too with space. The news that man
had landed on the moon was exciting in those days
but now it is taken for grated.
