No Fear

I've come to realize I am looking at things far differently than I did before. I do not seem to be afraid of anything. I do not mean in a dare devil way, but in a way that I know I will be able to deal with anything that comes my way. I think a person changes when they come face to face with their Maker and realize how things are. There are things I can change and things I can avoid. I can act or react.

Recently while watching some action movies or horror films, I imagine what I would do in a similar situtation. I hold no pretense to having super powers, or being able to stop a zombie with a death blow, but I have confidence that I'll deal with it appropriately and succinctly when and if the time ever comes. I've always been fairly brave. When it comes down to menace. I was not so brave to see some test scores in grad school. But when it came to standing up to bullies in school, I did pretty well. I only got pelted once in the fourth grade and that was not even a fight. My weapon of choice has always been my mind. When faced with adversity my mind instantly clears all extraneous thought and focuses on the problem at hand. This contrasts greatly with my normal state.

While I do not see myself fighting crime or zombies any time soon. I am confidence if it comes up, I'll be able to handle it.
