So, today is January first. I have been reading peoples status on Facebook and wondered if I should write something. Just like I always wonder if I should post things. Who cares where I have been? Who cares where I go? Why do people feel a need to share? Why do I struggle with sharing or not? I wonder what peoples motives for sharing are? What are my motives? Why do I think so much?
Here are some thoughts......2015
Was it the worst year? No
Was it the best year? No
Was it a roller coaster? Yes........but I think that is true of every year for every one. Why? Life is a roller coaster. It has its ups and downs and how we choose to live it or look at it is entirely up to us. We can let the ride terrify us or we can laugh at our own fears. I think of the roller coaster I rode just the other night. You go into this dark room and it stops. You wonder, what is going on? Then, the thing just drops. I mean free fall straight down. Before you know it you are flying on another track. Isn't that how life is? You fall onto another track and speed forward wondering what curves my lie ahead. Just like on a roller coaster there are a few people traveling with you. They yell to hold on and laugh with you at the fear of the whole thing.
That sums up my year. Many people tell me I am strong. I am just holding on. If they took time to talk to me they would know that I would really love to jump out of the long line just to get on the ride. This year, few people have shown me that they will ride with me and yell to hold on. Those people will wait in the line with me because they know I lack patience. Those people know the hidden pains and damage. Those people see the victories. Those people are the ones I will resolve to invest in more this year. I have learned that the greatest investment you can make is in the people who are willing to ride the coaster with you, no matter what lies ahead. .
Happy New Year to my friends from the past, the present and those that will be sent to bless my future!
