YOU ARE MINE:How a Wingman Makes You Appear Braver Than You Actually Are
Let's be frank, courage isn't exactly our default setting. We, as a species, are more inclined towards the "avoid awkward interactions at all costs" approach. But fear not, fellow trepidatious souls! There exists a magnificent tool in the courage toolbox – the Wingman.
Think of that presentation looming large on your calendar. Your palms become personal rainforests, your knees decide to reenact a particularly dramatic scene from "Jaws," and your brain helpfully conjures up slides that spontaneously combust. Enter the Wingman. With a reassuring pat on the back (and possibly a well-timed joke about the projector malfunctioning), you're propelled into action. Suddenly, you're David Attenborough, minus the khaki shorts and genuine knowledge of the animal kingdom.
Wingmen are the human equivalent of a safety net – they soften the blow of social blunders. They make the terrifying less terrifying because, well, at least you're not the only one potentially about to face a public speaking meltdown. They're also the on-call laugh track when things inevitably go a tad awry (because let's face it, sometimes your attempt at a witty remark sounds suspiciously like a deflating balloon animal).
Now, a good Wingman doesn't force you onto a metaphorical stage. They offer a gentle nudge, perhaps a pep talk that sounds suspiciously like a motivational poster in a dentist's office. But ultimately, the podium (or microphone, or cashier line) is yours to conquer. Don't worry, they'll be there to catch you if you trip over your words (metaphorically, of course. Unless you're dealing with a particularly enthusiastic Wingman, then a literal catch might be involved).
So, the next time you find yourself staring down a social situation that makes you want to crawl under your desk and stay there, remember – courage isn't the absence of fear, it's the willingness to face it anyway, preferably with a friend who can point out the rogue wrinkle in your metaphorical suit. Because let's be honest, sometimes even David Attenborough needs someone to double-check his fly before he encounters a particularly grumpy rhino.
The Lord Jesus is the Wingman of whom I sing in this song. He has promised to be with us always. So, we are not to be afraid!
