The one with no Eclipse but lots of light
Fri, Apr 17 2009 by Vanessa.
About a year ago, our new life began. We were just walking into the amusement park named Section 2. We bought our tickets, we milled around for several months trying to find just the right ride, scoping out all our options, fighting through the crowd, finally deciding on a roller coaster. We stood in line for a while and I guess about the middle of last fall we finally made our way to the front of the line, hopped into our seats, belted ourselves in and sat waiting, patiently, for the coaster to move. Toward the end of 2008 the coaster lurched forward and started creeping slowly out of the gate. We’ve been inching forward ever since and around the beginning of March I think we started to feel a slight change in angle as the roller coaster changed position from a completely horizontal rail to an incline. Now we find ourselves creeping up this incline, knowing that soon … soon … we will reach the peak, change direction again and fly down the rails with incredible speed and excitement. If only I knew how long this incline will be!
