I'd like to learn how to enjoy a trip with the roller coaster! I don't know how many times I've been watching these big and scary things - with big and scared eyes! They are so huge! And yet so fragile! With enormous ups and downs. And some of them even have 'wheels' that leaves you hanging up side down for some seconds! I can feel my stomach turn a somersault right now - only by the thought of it! I'm the kind of girl that gets dizzy if I turn my head around a little too fast... And still I'd love to love a trip with the roller coaster!
A part of me loves the straight and endless highways. The ones with no ups or downs, no curves and no unexpected turns. These roads make life simple. I'm in complete control, knowing exactly what to expect for the next hundred miles. I can turn on the cruise control and just relax...
...and die of boredom!
So, another part of me long for action! Striving for the spectacular view from the high tops. Aching for the intoxicating feelings that fill my body while standing on top of the world!
But, in order to get there, the ups are necessary. And without the downs there would be no new coming highs.
Yeh, a part of me would like to remain the quiet and safe girl who stands with both feet on ground, staring at the big roller coaster from a safe distance. Another part of me is dying to bury the fear deep down in Sahara, throw the need of control in the Black Sea and enter the first wagon in the roller coaster with a huge smile on my face, knowing that I've decided to LIVE, LOVE and ENJOY!
That's what I'd like to learn: to LIVE, LOVE and ENJOY life! Both the ups, the tops and the downs. Freakin' scary, but oh, so exciting!

Love your card, what a great design :)
Hear you loud and clear, I hate rollercoasters, but have a daredevil son who can only go on them with an adult. As dh has a bad back that adult is me!
Fantastic card :)
Your cards are always so beautiful and your journaling is so meaningful. Another great card!
Kjempeflott Åshild. Ikke bare lager du fantastiske kort, men du skriver så utrolig godt og levende. Livet er nok en berg-og dalbane...ikke alltid like lett å takle nedoverbakkene...Min mor brukte si at når man nådde "bunnen" var det bare en vei å gå..oppover. ;-) En godklem fra meg, med ønske om en fin dag!
