3 deeper concepts

3 Conceptual Questions My Memory Addresses:

How does love blind you (especially young love)?
I knew that I would be scared to death if I went on the ride, but I had such a big crush on John that I wasn't thinking. I wasn't being logical because I was "blinded by love” in that I wanted him to like me back so much that I didn't realize the consequences.

Why is it important to act your age sometimes?
If I hadn't been trying to act older to impress John, I would have realized that all of the other riders were way older than me. Even John and Justin were scared and they were each a year older. I should have acted my age and gone a ride for younger kids, that I would have enjoyed.

Why is it important to know yourself and your limits?
If I had known myself better, I would have known the ride was too scary for me. Even being blinded by my crush on John if I really knew me the knowledge that I would scream like the little girl I was would have overpowered my desire to impress John.
