Freeze or Flight?

My dreams are always of flight, but my reality is always to freeze. I’ve been saying to my concerned friends that I am frozen, waiting for the sign of what my action should be, guarding my energy so I know where, when and how to strike.

My friend stopped by yesterday in fear flight – she is riding the roller coaster guarding her activities, guarding her speech – she is guarded, guarding and on guard.

Shouldn’t we be en garde?

We are all vulnerable. What a year to pick vulnerability as my theme.

I follow IKAR and yesterday was listening to Rabbi Hannah Jensen as she sounded the alarm to those of us in flight or freeze mode, she was speaking to me, to you, to us – don’t go numb.
