Briandg, I don't really think I did anything wrong or that I am stupid, just reacted differently than I thought I would.....leave quickly.
Let me throw something in here for everyone to consider. You expected that under these circumstances, you would have naturally switched into flight mode, since fight is not practical.

When this challenging moment came, you recognized that intervention was impossible. Rather than committing wholeheartedly to flight, you did what some of us in the world refer to

rising up to the challenge before us.

You stayed in an area that had risk, and did things that were necessary, that there was nobody else around to do. You hung in there, with a potential murderer.

These are the minor heroic deeds that are what make us strong.

I can understand second guessing yourself, and minimizing what you did, and all the things that we do to ourselves. It's human nature. I do it myself.

But you, regardless of whatever else happened, you did important things. you didn't flinch in the face of potential danger. you were smart about it, too. That's all a person can ask.
