Just a ride

Life is like a ride in an amusement park. And when you go on it you think it's real, because that's how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and around and around, it has thrills and chills and is very brightly colored. And it's very loud and it's fun for a while.

Some have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question is this real or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered and they come back to us and they say: "Hey, don't worry, don't be afraid ever - 'cause this is just a ride!" and we kill those people.

"Shut him up. I have a lot invested in this ride, shut him up! Look at my furrows of worry, look at my big bank account, and my family. This has to be real!"

It's just a ride...

But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that - did you ever notice that? - and let the demons run amok..

But it doesn't matter, because it's just a ride. And we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice - no effort, no work, no job, no savings of money. Just a choice right now - between Fear and Love."
