Doing Things The Hard Way

This photo, entitled Doing Things the Hard Way, was taken by my daughter-in-law Zenny, minutes after advising her husband (my son Jon) NOT to drive  the truck up this trail, right after he got stuck and had to walk out of the bush to get help! Hee hee. (Methinks, it runs in the family!)

Why is it
that the
thinking about,
anticipating,
dreading,
being upset about,
flailing,
panicing,
resisting,
rejecting,
complaining,
stressing,
obsessing,
being angry about,
FEARING
is a thousand times
worse
than the
actual event
I have been
dreading
ever is
in reality?

And why
do I not remember
this
by now?
