Views from the Rollercoaster
raw. open. exposed. come on in




_______________
How to join: please come in
Many many days we feel alone or lost or just utterly discombobulated (fave word). Other days we feel like we are awash with wisdom or insight or hope. It's a rollercoaster alright!
Probably the most vital thing for us on our journey is that we are not travelling alone. We have the world's most magnificent friends, access to amazing therapy and a whole lot of serendipity of perhaps divine intervention?
I don't know about you, but rollercoasters all alone are no fun. So let's share the ride - the more the merrier, as "they" say (who are "they" anyway? This time "they" are right).
So here's where we share openly and authentically and expose ourselves with all our bits and pieces. At first we wanted to title this section "hanging out the dirty laundry" but then we realised it wasn't dirty, it was just life.
So please, journey with us. Let's hold one another and find encouragement in togetherness as we go Doooooown and UP. Because we always do. Smile
Same as always, follow along, add your own, riff off ours.
If you're feeling brave, post your versions in our comment feed so others can be inspired too. Or upload to your own social media (be sure to use our hashtags - #veryhumanrollercoaster - so we can find each other). Either way, make sure to comment on posts by others and encourage one another as we find new voices.
The only rules are: RESPECT!
See you in there!

I thought this poem was a recent post, but it was just the one that happened to pop up on my phone as I bought myself to check-in with the website again after some weeks off-line. It was exactly what I needed.
The first word that came to mind after reading it and taking a deep reassuring breath, and remembering that I am not a problem that needs to be solved, I am human.The word was exquisite. At the time the word meant to me, otherworldly, fresh and real. I then looked it up to see what it meant as I wasn't sure - "extremely beautiful and delicate" or "intensely felt" YES!
So here I am...I have been here in…
