Heights
My husband and son love to jump off very high rocks and cliffs into the sea.
To them, this is “fun.”

I once tried to jump off a rock that was only about six feet high, at their urging.
The problem is, once you decide to jump, it’s possible for you to’t change your mind.
And frankly I reserve the right to change my mind about anything at any time!
This works well, and I recommend it.
One is calmed to be reminded that it is all a set, a fiction.
