    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    well, actually it's a sub-fear of agoraphobia...I have the part where I am afraid of being in a place where I cannot escape. like cave diving...I couldn't do that, what if I got stuck and couldn't get out, or what if I got lost? I can't even watch the NatGeo shows on it...

    I have A legit phobia of bees. I am a grown ass woman and I will hide behind someone I'm with, which is really just a nice way of saying I'm use them as a human shield. If I'm alone I will run away from it. And yes, I do this in public. I start shaking and my body just reacts, it's like instinct or something. If someone held a gun to my head and told me not to move when a bee comes by, I'd get shot. I can't with those things.

    It's only bees. Flys, mosquitos, gnats, I don't give a shit.
