Life - A roller coaster?

"They" say life is one big learning curve, well I prefer to think of it as a roller coaster.

First you decide you are going to participate
You strap yourself in and wait for some unseen force to propel you forwards
In the beginning it is slow going, you work hard to get to the top of the first obstacle - and then hey
Free wheeling down the other side.
And if you're lucky you can gain enough momentum to keep going up the next slope

And you know when most people stop?

That's right - before they even buy a ticket. Of those who do pay their money and climb aboard - most will give up on the first obstacle. They'd sooner get off and clamber back to where they were. The few who remain on board are the "lucky" ones of course. They get glimpses of the great things they can do and achieve, they know they have a way to go and many more hills to climb - but once on board, nothing is going to stop them reaching their destination.

On the roller coaster of life, have you bought your ticket yet? Let me know
