Date: 2011-03-02 04:30 pm (UTC)Thirty five miles away from home. And I was expected to drive myself there and back, alone. Regardless of weather or road conditions. At least once a week for months.
There was no discussion about not going. Somewhere along the line the idea of actually crashing also was put on the 'don't even THINK about it' because attention grabbing behavior was going to net me something nasty, and that would have qualified. Starving to death? Okay, that's not begging for attention.
Suffice it to say, I had to get over it - anyway possible and nobody was going to do any part of it for me. Don't ask.
I've said it before, this was probably the saving of me.
Life will take us where it will - and over and over again, I've seen it bad, get worse and I'm still here. You make a good point - but I'll elaborate just a tad on it.
You can handle it. You're handling it right now, pay attention to that. You can handle it five minutes from now. Fifteen minutes from now. An hour from now. Really. Don't imagine anything - look at it, really REALLY look at it and know it for what it is, inside and out. If it's a monster, turn it into Elmo and move on - and the power to actually DO that? Amazing things happen.
If the 'car' is smarter than you are - and use whatever metaphor works for you - it knows the way, or at least the direction and is your trusted partner in the journey.
