I decided to take a turn from my usual goofy-ness for this post to talk about something a tad bit more serious. I was walking merrily in town when a word randomly came to mind, FEAR. What is fear to you? Is it a colour? A texture? A smell? Everyone fears something or someone. Be it God, our parents, spiders or even polkadots! The point is, we all fear something… and the purpose of this post is to see what people are afraid of…. you can add as many fears as u want… no matter how silly u may think they are… and just to start you thinking… I am gonna write down a few of my own fears, and I hope my readers can appreciate the courage it took for me to write this down:
1) Spiders - I would sooner grab a snake by the fangs than allow a spider near me…. (cringe)…. I don’t remember any traumatic experience that involved spiders but i just do NOT like them at all.
2) Heights - Ever since I could remember I’ve been afraid of heights. Even as a child so much as learning to ride a bike (which I still can’t bring myself to doing!) was one of the scariest things I ever tried to do!
3) Failure - Now this fear is one of my worst… I am not afraid of dying because its inevitable…. but the fear of death without accomplishment is what I fear…. I want to die having given something back to the world, and not being able to do that to me is, failure.
“A problem shared is a problem halved.”
If you aren’t comfortable revealing your name thats not a problem for me. Just leave your fear on the page for myself and others to see… theres nothing to be ashamed of…nothing to lose….. and theres no judgement here… I just wanna know…
What do u fear?
P.S. This post was NOT meant to depress or scare anyone… its just a thought that came to mind today when the word FEAR came to mind

Comment by woofie February 20, 2008 @ 7:36 pmI can sympathise with your fear of heights, I never went on the ‘big’ slides, I don’t lean over the railings in multi-sstorey shopping centres, nor do I believe that it’s ’safe’ to ride on roller coasters (has no-one learnt from the Final Destination films?!)
Comment by machelle February 20, 2008 @ 7:58 pmAt the moment I fear running out of time…
1-i fear being a burden on others…i fear the fact that one day i will pull someone down or ruin someone’s life…i rather die helping ppl than weigh anyone down :/

Comment by Mannaire February 22, 2008 @ 8:24 pm2) after a gazillion years or orthodontry, im afraid of falling and hitting my face and breaking all my teeth
3) bad ghosts – what do they want? after a few experiences with the supernatural as a kid, i got used to them after a while. but now im all grown up and theyve gone away, i lost the “used to them” part.
