Say you’re on a bus. The bus makes its required stops, and more people get on. The bus is already crowded. More people get on. And more. And more. You are in the back. Soon you *can’t move*. All of the windows are closed and it’s impossible to get off. You think to yourself “just don’t *freak out*, just don’t *freak out*”. Then you do. Then what?
This was my situation just this morning. My body was tight. My breathing deep. My heart pumping fast. My emotions thrown into a tailspin. “I have a choice not to feel this way” I thought to myself as I looked at the Asian delivery driver in the truck behind us. He had the number 28 facing outward in his truck. I wondered why? “Oh”, I thought, “it’s the 28th. The date. I have a choice to not feel this way. I HAVE THE CHOICE.”
