Life lessons from hanging with kids in Disneyland to begin our graceful descent from summer into the fall and a new year of heights and depths and simple pleasures:
-
Test my terrors more often by pushing myself beyond the safety of my comfort zone. Every one of those scary rides is a test of our fears, disguised as fun, obstacle course on the path to facing demons and the rollercoaster that is life’s daily ups and deadly downs.
-
Pull myself together when the ride’s too rough but allow myself to scream and let it out.
-
Hold on to the hands of those you love and live with, squeezing tight when needed most.
-
Go have some silly fun, more often, no mouse ears required.
