I made this “Keep Calm” image with keepcalm-o-matic.co.uk.<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nI had a dream earlier this week that’s stayed with me\u00a0~
\nI was driving in the left-turn lane of a five-lane road. I started to merge into the lane to my right but a car was coming from behind me.
\nThe other car sideswipes me hard and fast in a crash that’s my fault. My car starts spinning like I’m on a sheet of ice, even though it’s not winter.
\nHere’s what I keep thinking about: In that spin across five lanes of traffic, I didn’t panic. I stayed focused on what was happening, honked my horn to warn others, and when the spinning stopped, I got control and started driving again.
\nMerging on a big road was an everyday activity when we lived in Michigan. Now that we’re\u00a0New Yorkers who don’t own cars, I’m not sure why my brain ginned up this particular scene.
\nBut it seems like a great life lesson from my subconscious: When something goes wrong, keep\u00a0calm so you can steer your way out of the spin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
