Man, everyday life can really present its ups and downs. You know what I mean, one second everything is going your way; the next you can't buy a break. One second you are on the fast track to success, the next, something goes wrong and you go up in flames. Don't worry, everybody experiences these same ups and downs.
We are all going to have our ups and downs; it is universal and no one is exempt. How we handle our ups and downs will determine what kind of day and, ultimately, what kind of life we live. We can wallow in all the downs. OR, we can cherish the ups and realize that you can't have an up if you don't begin with a down.
Today's word is a quote that reminds me that we are all going to experience ups and downs: "Life is like a roller coaster. You can either scream every time there is a bump or you can throw your hands up and enjoy the ride."
I like roller coasters. Some people don't, and, trust me, that's okay. But, I like the fact that there is an element of danger, the feeling of just having to roll with the punches. I like the twists and turns, the loops and the rollovers. Roller coasters remind me of life.
In life, we are going to have our ups and downs, our twists and turns, our loops and rollovers. BUT, if we will do our part, remain faithful and obedient, and allow GOD to drive, we can sit back, throw our hands up, and enjoy the ride.
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
