When did I turn into a wimp ?

I just don’t get it.

When I was growing up I was a tomboy. I loved arguing, debating and looked forward to a fight. I was suspended from school twice for fighting.

I’m the world’s biggest wimp now. I don’t know how or when it happened. I also wouldn’t mind knowing why.

Whenever I’m involved in any sort of confrontation (even a nasty disagreement, or raised voice will do it) my knees get a little wobbly. My voice starts to waver, my skin tingles and I can’t trust my muscles to do what I’m asking. Soon my eyes will begin to water.

When did I get so emotional ? When did I lose my boldness, my desire to win at all costs, my love of being right ?

When did I turn into a wimp ?

I don’t know why I posted this, I just needed to get it out. Have you guys done a behavioural about-face on anything as you grew older ?

Behavioural about-face? Yeah.

I got in trouble a lot for hitting people in grade school. Now - you see, there’s this enormous, scary spider in my closet. The size of a Volkswagen, with fangs as large as my thumbs - and I refuse to kill it. It just doesn’t seem right to me.

A change of values, yes, but I’ve become a wimp.
