Only so much?

Accounting for bad luck and circumstances out of your control.

Maybe you only get so much running in your legs. 

Maybe if you start early in life, your knees go, and you can't run any longer (I started early, maybe that's gone). 

Maybe the same is true for cycling, but I started that later, so perhaps I will get more.

Maybe you only get so much chocolate eating before your type two diabetes kicks in (I started that early too). 

Maybe there's only so much beer drinking, and if you do all your beer drinking in your teens and twenties, maybe you only get to drink less when you're older.

What about heartbeats?

There is a theory that there are only so many of those, and that's why animals with faster heartbeats live for shorter lives; maybe if your heart gets raised through love or excitement or life, maybe you get less life to live.

So, what about life itself?

Maybe those whose candles burn the brightest burn for the shortest amount of time?

That's an easy choice to make from a far distance out, but it may be harder to take when the consequences come down to land. "Did you exchange a walk-on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?" Pink Floyd -  Wish you were here.
