I’ve had a particularly frustrating couple of years between some health battles, a pending move that didn’t pan out, and some other major life changes. There was a long while where I was in the dark and couldn’t see the proverbial light at the end of the tunnel. Thankfully that light was not an oncoming train and things are looking up. There are days now when the smile in my heart actually shows up on my face and I’m sure that’s a relief to everyone around me but no one is more relieved than me, myself and I. I just saw Martina McBride perform this on TV and fell in love with it. Its my new mantra. I’m doing my best to Ride that crazy roller coaster called Life. Hope you are too!
RIDE – Martina McBride
You wake up from your dreaming
and you don’t want to face the day
You can’t find a reason
to think your world will ever change
You can hide beneath the covers
Or you can run outside head up high and carry on
Life is a roller coaster ride
Time Turns the Wheel and Love Collides
Faith is believing you can close your eyes and touch the sky.
so Shine while you have the chance to shine
Laugh even when you want to cry
Hold on tight to what you feel inside and ride…
It brings you up slowly then shoots you like a rocket towards the ground
it twists you and it shakes you before it turns you upside down
You can’t see what’s around the corner
and You can’t look back, so just live it up and feel the rush
Life is a roller coaster ride
Time Turns the Wheel and Love Collides
Faith is believing you can close your eyes and touch the sky.
so Shine while you have the chance to shine
Laugh even when you want to cry
Hold on tight to what you feel inside and ride…
Ride, ride
So shine while you have the chance to shine
Laugh even when you want to cry
Hold on tight to what you feel inside and ride
Ride, ride!
