Just remember that the more expensive helmets aren't any safer than cheaper ones. The cost is a reflection of the weight and the number of vents (and marketing). Find one that fits well first and foremost. I, personally, don't like those that are gray or black because I'd rather have some additional color for visibility.
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
