    About this ebook

    Flashbacks from a Roller Coaster Ride is about how we learn and change as we progress through life's experiences. We sometimes feel we have little control over our destinies, and chaos takes over. It is important to pick up the pieces and carry on with the best intent we can muster.

    Sometimes we must look at ourselves from a great height, remaining as detached as we are able. This eventually enables us to reassemble and build, again becoming useful to others having a rough time. Good intent is rewarding. The trick is in keeping ourselves on track. When we do, miracles become reality.
