I know I posted this before - but it just seems we have so many new moms - that I thought we could all use it again - Ladies this is your life....
THE WILDEST RIDE by Cindy Pekarick, for her daughter Nicole.
Summertime lends itself to advertisement of exciting activities. Amusement parks boast of having the most "thrilling," the most "adventurous, " or the most "horrifying" ride for those who dare.
Since I lost my daughter, Nicole, I feel like I repeatedly, without warning, go on the wildest amusement ride the world has ever seen. In fact, all of us who have suffered the tragedy of losing a child take sudden rides on this blood curdling machine. Physicists could never conjure up a ride such as this - in fact, they couldn't even come close.
The force takes us up, down, and tears us inside out. We get thrown sideways, and experience sudden drops much greater than free-fall. We spin at record speed mentally and internally without ever lifting our feet off the ground. The ride is the fiercest, most frightening experience one could ever suffer through. It rages the emotions, leaving you breathless, with a feeling of urgency to share the uncontrollable adventure with those who are next.
There is never a waiting line, and the park is always operating. The ticket for this ride is only available through an exclusive club. There is one catch, however-the price for this ticket is very expensive. It was our child's life, and there is absolutely no refund.
I don't want to go on any more rides.
Hugs to all, Ann
Every word is so true. This ride is making me sick.
