We go through life going from one extreme to another, sometimes it seems like the opposite extreme. For instance, I am a writer and a teacher and I am constantly trying to write a new piece of writing to get it published. If writing is all I do, I will probably never finish anything I write. I end up hating myself sometimes but I try to not let that discourage me.
It goes back to the same point, but in a different way. Writing is a constant effort because writing is something you have to do. It’s a constant challenge to try new things, to figure out how to do things better, and to try to figure out what you want to do. Writing is a kind of insanity game. The more you try and fail the more you succeed.
This is an important concept to understand because it’s why we try so hard. We try to come up with good ideas, to be better than others, and to figure out what we want to do. Our writing efforts are like a roller coaster. If we fail, we’re done. If we succeed, we’re done. We’re never quite sure when we’re going to succeed or when we’ll fail. But we keep trying.
In order to get a good idea of what we want to do, we have to read the book: “The Road to Doom.” If we don’t read the book, and then fail, but then come up with a good idea, we fail.
It’s like the roller coaster. You try to get on, and then you fall off. You try to get back on, and you fall off. You try to get on again, and you fall off. You try again, and again, and again. If you fail, you are done. If you succeed, you are done. If you dont succeed, it’s just a ride.
You can’t just go “Oh I am going to get on this roller coaster and I will go down the roller coaster and I will go up the roller coaster.” you have to start from the bottom, go onto the right side, and then climb the steepest part and then slide down. It doesn’t matter if you fail or not, we will still be on this roller coaster.
If you think that roller coaster is only for the elite, think again. The only thing that makes it more exciting is the fact that you have to try to keep your balance while you try to go down the roller coaster. Try not to get stuck. You cant. And you cant if you have rollercoasters in your head.
We’re talking about rollercoasters on a giant roller coaster, which are a bit more intense than just a normal roller coaster. It is called a roller coaster when you’re riding a car that climbs around in loops, goes through a round-about, goes over a drop, and loops back up. It’s much more challenging if you’re trying to keep your balance while you slide down the roller coaster. Try not to get stuck. You cant.
We just spent a lot of our time trying to figure out if the roller coaster was the right place to begin, and we ended up crashing into a giant, fat tree. The tree was actually the most interesting part of the roller coaster, as it was shaped like the tree of life. It had branches that sprouted out of it and were covered in flowers. The tree was a bit like a giant flower, which I think is how I remember it, but not as big.
If you can’t figure out how to get to and from the roller coaster, then who can? We’re stuck in a real world with our own thoughts and actions that we’ve spent years trying to figure out. We’d like to help those “real-world” people out.
