Live Life to the Fullest
" Nobody ever lives their life all the way up except bull-fighters." (pg. 18)
How does one live their life all the way up? I think that is something everyone wants to know how to do. For centuries, people have been creating "Bucket Lists" to try to attempt to conquer everything they want to before their time on earth is up. Regret is one feeling that nobody wants to have to hold in their heart, so everyone is always encouraged to try something new and "Live life to the fullest!" Everyone wants to accomplish this trite saying, but is it possible for someone to actually do it?
During this lost generation, I am sure nobody really felt they were living their life to its potential. Anyone who has read this book would probably agree with this. How can one live their life to the fullest when all they do is drink alcoholic beverages, eat, and find company with friends. Even if they were living their life all the way up, there is no possible way they would ever remember it.

Clever :) Something to add to that- how is it that bull-fighters are the only ones that live their life to the fullest? Perhaps it's the daring nature of these men... I wouldn't want to be a bull-fighter though, and I feel like I'm living my life up!
