Getting Off the Roller Coaster

Personally, I love roller coasters, and anything super awesomely fun like them! I have never really been too sure as to why I like them, I just know that I do. Sometimes when we get off of the roller coaster, we feel dizzy and somewhat out of it. Our balance can be wobbly and we may feel as if we are going to fall over. The same thing happens when we finally let someone into our lives and allow them to know the truth about what is going on. When something big is going on in our lives, it is so easy to try and keep it to ourselves. We are told that if we share our problems with others, we will feel a lot better. But is that true? When we first share with someone, we may feel uneasy and nervous about what is going to happen next. But, just like when we get off the roller coaster, it take a while to feel "normal" again. Not only do we feel normal, but we have feelings towards the ride that we were just on. If it was a positive experience, we will have positive feelings. My thoughts today are rather than being discouraged and frightened by the unstable feelings we may have when we first share a problem with someone, we should look forward to the excitement and positive feelings that we can experience after. Only then can we possibly move towards feeling truly released from whatever is going on.
