Cordelia confronted a fear today. She did not want to go on the Hong Kong ferry. She was really scared & dug her heels in last night, citing Meercat's fear & her own tiredness for wanting to take a taxi from Central to Tsi Tsui ?? (location of our hotel).
This morning, we decided we needed to go. Cordelia was fearful but was persuaded (bribed?) with a rollup to give it a go. She did & it was all good! She ran onto the ferry, ran to the front & was disquieted by how short the crossing was. The return journey was embraced with no hesitation & saw her taking the whole journey with her head out the window like a dog in a car. Well done Miss C.
Top 5-no. 4
1. Facing a fear & then relishing the new experience you have given yourself
2. Presenting engaging & imaginative rationale as to why one (& one's companion) can't embark on a new experience
3. Getting a short term reward & a long term skill from displaying courage
4. Embracing the new experience fully
5. Creating a new reality so quickly - I used to be scared of ferries now I love ferries
