so there's this roller coaster at the Great America theme park called invertigo. One set of people goes forward as the other set goes backward. Some people laugh, some scream and cry. Some feel refreshed after, others sick. it's easily one of the best roller coasters i've ever been on...
in life, it's the same story, but far from the best. when in the course of 10 days there are a birthday, a wedding, an historic election and 2 funerals (3 if i were to count the passing of President-elect Obama's grandmother); when i feel on the job, again, that one can succeed without the other receding; when the economy's got more twists and turns than the super-duper-looper, but hey Americans are paying less for gas...
what's up with the bittersweet?
what's to be made of the suicide of a shining star?
RIP Mentor and Friend, my prayers are with your family, see you in the casket tomorrow
Congratulations Brother, she's a beautiful bride
RIP Uncle, I'm so sorry Aunty and Cousin
Congratulations on the election, so sorry your Grandmother missed it by a day
Happy Birthday Daddy
i love life, i really do... but at some points, the paradoxes and conundrums just get so overwhelming that I don't know up from down or whether to laugh or cry.
how did God know to give us both?
