Dodging the Box

As a skinny 8th grader, I feared for my life in gym class when we started boxing exercises. I dodged being called into the ring until the day I heard Coach yell my name to come box some gorilla of a boy/man/thing.

Without thinking, I froze and yelped, "I'm a LOVER not a fighter!" (Why, I'll never know.)

Everyone in the gym went instantly quiet...until Coach started chuckling and skipped over me to the next name on the list.

Humor--it can Save Your Life.
