Never looked at it like that,how very true,thankyou xx

I have heard the term :fight or flight: adrenaline in your bloodstream.

I've been in fear for my life in the past, the fear for me then went through stages, panic, only focus of survival, anger, strength, fight, paralysis when everything seems to be suspended for a short period when my only focus was on listening and hearing. I couldn't hear over the noise in my ears, my ears were wowing with the adrenalin rush and I needed to hear where the B was, once that recovered I chased after the scum bag, and guess what he did run away from me :) a coward when confronted, but I was a real wild thing by that time.

Mind you I did use my magic powers and called on my invisible army, they soon put the hee bee gee bees up him :D

I think it probably depends on the circumstances but when you can't flee there is only one option for survival. I did not know how powerful that instinct was till some coward thought they would attempt to threaten my life and well being when I was sleeping. With my super aided adrenalin rush the coward was no match for me.

I an all powerful survivor, sort of makes you feel like there isn't anything you can't overcome. Probably we all need to be reminded of that inner power from time to time.
