Grandmother Ria Van den Brand is nearly 80 years old, and has never ridden on a roller coaster before. Without any fear, she took her first ride, and here’s the video. It’s so great! There’s no way you can watch her reaction and not love the fact she didn’t have any fears, and still has a love for life. We could all learn from Ria – take that chance, do what you love to do, and never, ever be afraid.

Thank you Katie! Isn’t it cool?! She probably loved it because it was her first time riding a rollercoaster and you know what they say “You have only one life, so live it right and have fun!”
Katie says
Yup!! Words to live by..!

Wow. I saw you today in Fredericton and you and neverest and spencer west are so inspiring. I write poetry and lately have been drawing a blank as to what to write about and all you guys represent how anyone can make a change and since I saw you guys just 9 hours ago I have all these ideas and you guys are just so cool and all I want to do is impact lives like you guys have. I’m going to try so hard to make a difference too.

Thank you so much Hannah! I am so glad that you liked the show in Fredericton, wasn’t Spencer and Neverest great? That is so cool that you write poetry, you can use that skill and talent of yours to make a difference, to express your passion. You can do that with any passion, baking, drawing, writing, speaking and more things that you are good at and that you love! I know that you CAN make a difference, it does not matter how old you are, you can change the world. It is not even that hard, you just have to set your mind to it and make a big impact in your community.

Thank you so much Hannah! It is people like you who inspire me to have a blog and share my passion with everyone. It makes such a big impact when you are just aware of the problems in the world, it is another person who cares and tries to make a difference!
