It was a warm sunny day, things were cool, but as I got near my front door, I saw a fight break out between two kids.

I cannot guess ages so I guess they may have been around the same age, but one stood about three feet tall, the other about four foot six.
The little guy was getting all the punches in, and I mean he really tore into this guy.

Three different guys pulled them apart at different times in the side street, then they cross into the main road across from me, and suddenly it erupts again.

The big guy threw the little one into the road, so I dashed across to stop the traffic.
I pulled the little guy to one side, he glared at me, then he seemed to trust what I did.

He was shaking with rage, so I told him to calm down, and that fighting never solves anything.
The big guy must have done serious harm to him, as the little guy did not come across like a fighter.

I made sure there was plenty of distance so it did not happen again and one of them gets killed in the road.

Question is, I am good at diffusing fights, always was, but is it a gift?
Those other three guys intervened but never got to stop it until I got on the scene.

The other thing is, why? Did I choose to side on the little guy who was beating the big guy!
After looking into the kids eyes I guess I made the right decision,

I guess the big guy risked his life in stopping the traffic which totally excedes the speed limits.

I guess danger to me is not my danger, if I have to go, then it is time for me to go, and if I save someone from danger it was worth it.

I hate seeing kids bullied and the little guy certainly was real hurt, and I did ask him why this big guy hurt him, but he did not tell me.

I only let him go when an older teen promised he would take him home to his mom, so I said keep him safe, guess this is little ste taking over.

I dunno,

The peace maker, my parents fought a lot and I tried to make them stop, the abuse also helped me try to do what I thought was my duty to save the world. I felt like everything that I saw on the news was my fault, like I needed to repent for the world. It was hard to turn this off but I have, and now I will help when it is a situation like yours but for the most part I keep to my problems and stay out of others.

You did a good thing by helping stop the fight. Why you did it and why you stopped the one who was winning was natural instinct I think. I guess you could have grabbed the other kid but either way you did the right thing and helped another human.
 
John,

I was always between my parents fighting, and mostly it was about me, so I threw myself between them.

I was always daddys boy, but had a certain "control" over my dad.
Even when he "lost it" with me and beat the shit out of me, he just got that glare off me.

He was Oh so sorry, but daddy you just beat your little kid for no reason came to mind.
Guess I could have been killed crossing that road, but I shouted for the big guy to stop it, and he ignored me.

He didnt ignore me when I came across the road, he just got the hell outta there.
I just hate bullying anywhere I find it,

Ste,

The little guy was still the underdog, even if he was winning. He was fighting against odds and doing a pretty good job. I bet a lot of survivors would have identified with that.

Much love,
Larry
 
Larry,

I guess I told him he is a good fighter, and stuck up for himself.
I told him how he put up such a good fight, but fighting does not do any good.

I saw he was shaking with rage and anger, but I guess he wasnt a bad little kid, but my fear is, what happens next!

I dont know what the big guy did, but it must have been pretty damaging for the little guy to be hurting so much, but I seemed to calm him from this rage,

ste,

I think it's natural, especially for people like us, to want to defend the "little guy". I also think you did a good thing regardless of who was picking on who.

Lots of love,

John
