Monday Motivation - Let's Get A Kick!

“If you want something you've never had, you must be willing to do something you've never done before.” - Thomas Jefferson

Do you ever think that you are feeling good with your life but what happens is just so so? I mean you are happy with it. There is just no enough spark. If only there was 'fireworks', it would be much more interesting. There are always "if I have done this, i will feel that" feeling. If those things are in you, then it's time to rethink. And redo I suppose. 

It's okay. It's not only you, because I, myself also feel the same thing. You know some time it's not I am not grateful for what I have in my life. But some twists given will probably change my life or my attitude into the good way. I mean experiences are so much fun. At some point, I will feel like "oh..it's very great if I can do this (whatever that is)". You know it doesn't mean I can't do that particular thing, but I just never do that my whole life. And to start doing things is not basically too difficult. AFRAID is what stops me (and probably you) most of the time. 

One day, my very bestfriend and I had a trip to Korea. We were brought to Everland - a theme park. I am not a person who will get into roller coaster or the one who awaits the ride. Not a big fan of it! Usually I will simply reject and wait faithfully for my friends. I knew my friend want to ride it so much. That's why I accompany her. When it was our turn, I was so scared that I thought probably I should stop there. How if I couldn't breathe when I was up there? How if it was a very long ride but I couldn't stand it anymore? Nobody can stop the ride in the middle right?

After all, I was there on the ride. Sat down, screamed the loudest I could, closed my eyes real tight, and sometimes peeped through because I was so curious how was it like opening eyes during the roller coaster.

Later on, I just know that that roller coaster is the world's steepest wooden roller coaster. Haha. I can tell you that the first time it went down, it felt like forever. Phew! As you may see, the first fall starts on the right side of the picture. If I was too afraid at that time, I may not know how it is like to be on that ride and will never be able to tell you this story. I am glad I have done it :D This is the first big roller coaster I have ever rode.

In real life, you have to be brave. It helps you to experience so many exciting things that you have never had before. Be bold and be tough! Don't be afraid of what people will say. If you have faith on what you are going to do and have planned it well, you will go through it. There is nothing impossible, as long as you are willing to do anything (positive) to reach it, eventually you will get there. Rethink of what you've done until now, it may need a little twist here and there. So, what are you waiting for? Who knows it will bring you to somewhere brighter? ;) Go! Try new things out there because when you look back in your life, you'll regret the things you didn't do more than the ones you did.

Thanks for reading :)
