In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Fight or Flight.”
It was a roller coaster, water log ride. At the apex was a pause before the drop below. The moment prior to the freefall is sheer terror. For others, it’s fun. The damn snapshot captured the terror on my face. I hated that feeling!
The other feeling was not physical as in the above-referred paragraph but more by thought, albeit mind control courtesy of the government and its talented hoodlums. They intentionally created a fictional hostage crisis.
I sensed it was necessary for my understanding and personal growth and experience. I sensed I could play along and did. Then I sensed that they were joking and the joke was me. I had to stop and years later realized who “they” were.
It takes one to fool and the other to be fooled. I played both roles and as such have taught me to take the middle ground. I always try to take the middle ground. And by doing so, balance is achieved from stress to calm.
