I am a coward.
I realized this today because my officemate's car had been damaged by a car backing away. As I was taking a yosi break I saw the car's owner and my officemate arguing. What did I do? I retreated, and I didn't even try to listen to their argument. Oh well, I am not in the position to argue with them anyway.
I shy away from fights and confrontations and I don't think I've ever been on one yet.I am afraid to be confronted, I am afraid someone will say something bad about me. I'd rather wait for the storm to pass, the fire to die, the rain to stop, the river to ebb than to start an argument with anyone. I don't think I will be able to say something un-stupid.
Maybe I'm just afraid to stumble or to seem dumb to anyone so if I can I'd rather shut up.
