How To Escape The Roller Coaster
No matter where you are, you look around and, sure enough, there you are.
Do you spend a lot of time and energy trying to be somewhere other than here-and-now?
I’ve noticed lately that my inner life seems to be a roller coaster. Past experience tells me that the valleys will eventually outnumber the hills, and when that happens I’ll settle into a low spot. Unless I take some sort of evasive action, my natural tendency toward depression will drag me into the shadows.
