Rollercoaster of Life Life is a crazy ride at your favorite amusement

Rollercoaster of Life
Life is a crazy ride at your favorite amusement park.
The people in line are like those in your life.
Some stay in the line for a little while, then chicken out and leave.
They get scared of what's coming at the end of the line.
They help you here and there, encourage you, pep talk you, then leave.
Then there are the ones who you get attached to.
You want them by you on the ride.
They hold your hand when you're scared to move up in the line.
They talk you through it, comfort you, fight for your spot on that ride,
But when you're next to get on, they go for the EXIT.
They realize they can't do it either, like the others.
"Good Luck" they say, walking down those steps on to another path.
Leaving you stranded there, thinking you're alone on this ride.
The ride pulls up, stops as the passengers are getting off.
You start debating whether you can go through with it.
The gates open for you to step on.
Feeling so alone, you start backing away, saying to yourself,
"I can't do this alone." Then you feel a hand on your shoulder.
"We can do this. It'll be fine."
The ones who were with you the whole time.
They stood in line with you, strong, prepared.
They have been on this ride before.
They know it'll all be worth it in the end.
You step on the ride, strong, and proud.
Surrounded by those who have fought for you,
loved you, helped you in every way they could.
They made you who you are today.
The ride starts, you're scared you won't make it,
Scared that you'll lose the ones you love.
You make it up and down the hills, through the loops,
Turns, and spins. The ride comes to an end.
You step off the ride, look across and see someone else
In line, scared. You turn and say, "It's worth it, You can do it"
You smile and walk down those steps to get on another
Life changing experience.
