Like on a roller coaster

I feel like my life is like a roller coaster. Whenever I have a good week, I know that some kind of bad news will soon hit me...and this becomes true EVERY time. Ups and downs define my life, but you know what? It makes it more interesting.

Now, whenever you are experiencing some bad moments, remember that good ones are nearer than you think (and if you are just having a row of happy moments, keep in mind that no one is luck enough not to experience negative ones, so be prepared my friend). If we didn’t have a break from our enjoyable times, we wouldn’t even call them “enjoyable” or “wonderful.” They would just be normal.
