Saying yes when you forgot to say no

In yoga today, we were helping each other with handstands. I helped my partner, and then she went to help me. I tried three times to get up and was there for a second and then fell. I said, I don’t know what is going on, I’ve been able to do this before. And kept trying and kept falling.

I realized later, in my truck, that I had never tried a handstand in my life. I have always been terrified of doing one.
