BrakeDancer

There’s not a lot of things that irritate me more, than drivers who are constantly tapping on their brakes. Even when a yacht could fit between them…and the car before them. I was bored earlier, so I asked myself ‘why this annoys me so much?’ And…it’s because it reflects the type of overcorrections I make, when I’m uncomfortable. I either do way too much, to find my way back to balance. Or…nothing at all. Never in between. I’m feeling emotional discomfort right now and…I’ve been trying to imagine what a middle ground looks like. Because my default response was to freeze all feelings. Unfortunately, that just stalls the amount of time it’ll take…for me to release my foot from off the neck…of someone who wants me pressed.
