For example, I've never rode in a convertible car.  Never even sat in one.  You'd think that after almost 42 years on this planet I would've, but nope.

Can you think of a common activity that you've never tried?

Never rode on a jet ski, or an ATV. 

It's not that I wouldn't, it's just I've never had the opportunity.

I've never been drunk, not even tipsy. I can't stand the taste of alcohol, even in miniscule quantities, so I have never had more than a sip. I've never been deer hunting, which is unusual since I live in a state (Texas) that used to close down schools in some districts on the opening day of deer season. I have brothers that lived to hunt, but I have never gone. I've never ridden on a train. I would like to, but I haven't yet.

Gone on a vacation with a girlfriend.  None of my girlfriends ever wanted to go anywhere.  Or do anything.

Yeah I've never rode in a convertible either.  In fact last year during the Great Sprite75 Road Trip of 2015 (tm) I was looking to rent a convertible to drive back home but it was way too expensive.  I have a friend who has a VW covertible, I've been giving my car salesman friend a hard time telling him Chevy needs to make a convertible Volt.

     I've never been on an actual date; I've partied and gotten drunk / high with women, but a "date" date, never.
If it's true what they say, that GOD created us in His image, then why should we not love creating, and why should we not continue to do so, as carefully and ethically as we can, on whatever scale we're capable of?

     The choice is simple; refuse to create, and refuse to grow, or build, with care and love.

ER

I've never been drunk on New Year's Eve. I've never committed adultery. I've never done my own taxes. I've never ridden a schoolbus to or from school. I've never had a pet that was "put to sleep." I've never experienced getting punched in the face. I've never had a bachelorette party. I've never grown up with a sibling. I've never learned how to play a musical instrument. I've never bought an illegal drug. I've never had a newspaper subscription. I've never watched an entire episode of Friends.
