Life is like a merry-go-round, is it not?

With mothers and fathers breathing life into us, we grab the handle bars with their help and start to spin and spin and away on our lives we go.

As we grow older and the ride goes faster, some with the resolve of assholes hold on one-handed, only to be thrown off and be looked down upon by the riders still clinging.

As we all ride the wind, we laugh, we hug, we kiss, we even cry as we go around and around at speeds making the ride dangerous, but fun.

As the ride reaches its summit, it tests not only the grip, but the integrity, well-being, and the very soul of the many people that still hang on, only to all laugh in delirious harmony with the wind in our faces making the excitement and adrenaline in us all rise to the unimaginable of heights.

With its marvelous motions we go around the bend and again, going in a continuous loop until the day we finally can't hold on anymore and fly off, breathing our last breaths and closing our eyes for good, forever taken off the plains of the living and peacefully fading away.

Life can be good, life can be bad, but throughout all and especially in the end, its all up to you.
