Their rides are deceptively scary.
I spent a part of my day with my God Brothers at Castle Park. The rides that had gone as a child all seemed different: the ones that i had been uncomfortable with in the fifth grade looked like child's play, and the ones that i had been comfortable with in the fifth grade were all gone now.
But as i got on the rides that i had known and laughed on before as a youngster, I found that i had found a new rush, a new sort of exhilaration that i hadn't felt in years.
On that note, I also got to spend the day with Four wonderful little boys of mine. I got to let them lead me around the park as they headed towards the log ride, merlin, screaming demon, and vickings. They clung to me as we went on the big kid rides, laughed on the kiddie ones, and they were quite the thrill seekers. I think i was more afraid of the rides then they were.
Sometimes, we think we know everything as grown ups, but i can say that children can teach us a great deal about life.
