I saw and felt again today how an experience we've had some time in the past can affect the way we behave in the present. And what an effect - just because, somewhere back there, in the depths of our sub-conciousness, there lies something which had a profound effect on us. In my case it was my accident on the Test Track. As I tried to push a car hard into the track's small, tight, banked corner, something deep within was trying its utmost to tell me this is NOT a good idea. Didn't matter that I knew deep inside me that it'd be safe - not only because I ought to be able handle what could happen, and because I basically had permission to damage the car if necessary... But especially because I had asked the Lord to protect me! Classic case of the brain wanting to override the heart.
