"Life's a giant rollercoaster."
then it made itself right at home, because there's more to it. its not just about the ups and downs that make it such a cool analogy. maybe all of us are in tiny cars, and our relationships the links between cars.
so we try prepare ourselves for life- put a seatbelt in, screw a handlebar on while we're at it. oil the gears regularly (that'd be the exercise), paint it pretty, stick in a cushion. so you've prepared yourself, and so maybe the ride goes smoother, you feel much safer, maybe you think you can stay there forever.
but ultimately, we don't have a say in where we go, do we? we're in a rollercoaster, but blindfolded. because we all can't be the next Cassandra, can we. who knows how many times we'll flip upside down, inside out. or how many times you scream your lungs out. or.. when i think of more stuff to do i'll let you know.
pauses. my point is, i guess there's not much use in worrying about what's gonna happen. in fact, most rollercoasters are much more fun if you think you're gonna fall out. so.
enjoy the ride.
