Instincts.

I've always wondered how I would respond under pressure if I was being robbed or something. I guess I thought I would react well becasue when I was in high school one night a man followed me out to my car in a grocery store parking lot and I was scared out of my mind. When he caught up with me he placed his hand on my shoulder from behind and my instincts kicked in and I threw him to the ground ... turns out it was just a sweet old man from my ward who wanted to say Hi. Whoops! ... luckily he was a retired FBI agent and rather impressed by my manuver and spent the next few years trying to convince me to join the FBI.

Well yesterday I thought someone had broken into my house (it was really just Mark thankfuly playing a joke on me). I thought I was about to die and this is what I did ... I was on the phone at the time and I chucked my cell phone across the room, screamed and threw myself onto the floor. Really?!! That's the best I have? Why would I throw my phone as far away as possible? Wow. I'm really an idiot. I guess my real insticts are to be submissive to try and avoid getting hurt. Maybe I should work on that.
