D
id you ever play this game as a kid, or take part in it as a team building exercise as an adult, where you are blind-folded, and everyone gathers behind you, and you have to just FALL BACKWARD, and hope they are there to catch you? How hard was it for you to just let yourself go and trust in an outcome over which you had no real control?


Read the rest!
