Life is a roller coaster.
There are times on that roller coaster where
Where you wish you never started
Scared about what’s going to come
You wish you could just stop and start over
Or maybe wish you never started that ride

But once you get on
You notice that there is a journey ahead of you,
And that there is someone there beside you
Thinking the same thing

The author's comments:
roller coaster of life is about challenges we face everyday and how we face them and what it feels like. i used a roller coaster because sometimes roller coasters are pretty scary and you debate about riding it or not. but you do it anyway, and before it starts you regret riding it. much like making a decision and then changing your mind and regretting it. but once you get on the roller coaster or the ride starts you realize it is really fun and the people who are riding it too are thinking the same thing have their own problems they face.
