Life is a roller coaster.
Full of ups and downs.
Plus twists and turns.
Even totally upside down.

We can choose how to ride it.
Sit there in ultimate terror.
Clenching tight to what appears safe.
All the while screaming inside.

Or we can sit idle.
In disjointed oblivion.
Watching everything go by.
Barely there, just existing.

You might just choose instead to ride.
In a state of blissful excitement.
Sheer joy as you face every twist and turn.
Filled with happiness and love of life.

How courageous are you?
Will you face the twists and turns?
Are you ready for the ups and downs?
Can you handle being upside down?

The choice is yours.
What is right for you?
Only you can decide.
Which kind of ride you take.
