Sometimes, when you’re small and still busy growing up, people tell you not to do certain things because otherwise Bad Things will happen.
Sometimes, many years later, you do those things anyway, and realise that the world doesn’t actually spontaneously combust, or stop turning or fall on your head.
It’s quite a let down in a way. But it’s a welcome let down. I didn’t want to be responsible for the end of the world 😉
Oh so glad that whatever you did didn’t stop the world turning 🙂
So am I! 🙂
Parents have such fears. Each generation has to tear down a few conventions that their parents held tight to. It’s human nature, I think. Your parents did it, too.
You’re new here – welcome to my world 🙂
My parents aren’t scared of anything 😉 (or don’t let on if they are) In this case it wasn’t my parents I meant, it was other adults in my life..
