sometimes, your heart can be a backstabber

here i am, back in office, writing this post. thinking of the conversation i had earlier this very day.

i got a call from someone when i giving a lesson on using a manual transmission car to a woman who was used to drive an automatic transmission vehicle. i know that the person who's calling me got upset. because there was a long pause between our conversation.

and i can only said that happened. especially when your heart bled and burned and all the while was fueled by the conclusion your brain made in a blink.

i know that i disagree to teach that person how to drive. because it is true that to train a beginner how to drive, first you must have a right car. its the kind of car that was modified to have at least a second brake pedal and/or coupling. which the car i used then had not.

you see, i agreed to teach how to use a manual transmission car ONLY BECAUSE the woman had many hours experience driving around a car, albeit an automatic one. that means she is used to handle a steering wheel, coordinating gas and brake pedals, using rearview mirrors and signs when turning. that means that she is so much familiar of being a driver.

all that i can add is telling her to get in her mind of the sequence: step on coupling, put the transmission gear from neutral to first position, step on the gas, slowly let go of the coupling pedal until the car went the forward.

that means i didn't teach her from scratch. and that was a lot of difference than giving a lesson to a person who had no experience of driving any car whatsoever.

i didn't even know why i had the urge of giving any explanation here.

maybe because you can read it well here.

all i can say is that sometimes, your heart can lead you into the wrong conclusion.

sometimes, your heart can be a backstabber...
