Housewife Stays StrongPosted by rubytuesday in my day today, dealing with emotions |
I have never liked roller coasters, or other white-knuckle rides. It is beyond me why anyone could describe them as fun. Personally I would rather have a nice cup of tea.
But yet, here I am riding this rollercoaster against my wishes - I’m strapped into my seat, and I just have to go with it. Recent days have seen the roller-coaster climb gently up-hill, where, right at the top, you can relax for a while, enjoy the view and catch your breath, and just when you are getting settled in your seat, whoop - the downward slide starts, and you think “here we go again”. This time, I have checked the safety-bar, and am holding on tight, this time, I know that I will be ok, the downward slide didn’t look so scary from the top as they have done before. Is that because I know now what to expect, or is it because the ups and downs are now being to even out a wee bit? A bit of both, I suspect. I know that I am strong enough now to see this ride through to the end, I cant quite see the end of the roller-coaster yet, but I do know that it is there, somewhere.
