life is a roller-coaster.

would i really have it any other way though? i don't really like being hurtled towards apparent oblivion at a terrifying speed. i'd prefer not to be looping the loop or taking sharp corners. and i like it even less when the intervals between each perilious plunge are short. and i'd definitely prefer a chance to get my breath back in between the assaults on my senses.

yet there are glorious, energizing, exhilarating moments on this ride too.. and when they come, they make it all worthwhile.
