One of the things you should have done by the time you are 30.
*Believe-piercingly, terrifyingly, if only for an instant- that you were about to die.*
Worn an item of lingerie that no one, by any *gymnastics of the imagination*, could conceivably need.
What do those that mean? |

Be absolutely convinced, if only for a moment, that you were about to die.
Wear a piece of underwear that nobody could imagine was necessary. |

Why is that?

I don't know why, Missdaredevil. You asked the original question. I just tried to make it easier to understand.
But, maybe if you were sky diving and your parachute didn't open, but you landed on a haystack or something soft and survived, probably on the way down you would expect you were about to die.
I guess the author of the piece thought it would be a worthwhile experience to feel that you were going to die.
It might make you appreciate life and stop you worrying about small details
What's your take on it? |
