I could have freaked out if I were in your shoe. Anyway, I learned useful tips from your posts and I guess I'm not yet ready for number four. Talking to an outsider just makes me feel uneasy. Perhaps I need to work on that. Well, talking about some plane crash just sounds terrifying. I could have freaked out if I were in your shoe.

This, I think is good advice for life. So often others (aka control freaks who really love us) want to do things for us and we say "no" for whatever herculean reason we make up. But they need something to do and they want to do something for us. Practicing taking help, assigning tasks and all that jazz in a non-crisis pretty much makes it second nature for us to do it if (when?) a real crisis hits us in the head.
