Everything happens pretty quickly.
The mind is working feverously to find away out of the perdicament.
But even when you have time to find options the question remains...
would it make things better OR worse?
Afterwards I recognized how fortunate I was to be able to get behind the bear.
“If I had had to face it head on what would I done?...
offered it my one arm to chew on while stabbing with the other?”
I guess that is indeed what one does in that situation.
A painful solution but it worked for this fellow.
Yeah, I can’t imagine being in that situation. I would bet that you go from beyond scared to just plain fighting for survival.
Whenever I have had confrontations with mean dogs, I get scared up to the point when they actually bite me. Then I get fighting mad and want to kill the s.o.b.!
