No need to be void, or save up on life...

    Oh yeah....and public speaking -- but I never ever have to do that so it's not really a concern!

  • that effort might be futile....gotta push those thoughts away and push on.

    My fears:

    my parents dying
    being trapped in a very tight space
    my fingertips being pierced with a pin (when they need blood)
    Losing financial security

    chicks.

    public speaking.

    getting blood taken out. One time, I was getting 4 or 5 vials of blood pumped out of my skinny teenage arm. Everything was going okay until......I looked down at my arm and saw blood just spewing into a little glass vial. That was it for me. Next thing I knew I was laying on the table with three nurses hovering over me.

    I even have visions of my dad's funeral....or the image of my dad if he outlives my mom.

    I'm afraid of garbage disposals. One time my sister dropped a silver fork in the sink when it was on and she started to put her hand in to pull it out and I screamed. I've been afraid of them ever since. :p

    I'm afraid of being killed by a semi-truck on the freeway when it's snowy.

    I've had nightmares of my son drowning in black water and being unable to see him to pull him out. But now that he can swim, it's not so much a fear as the memory of a fear. :D

    Those three are the only ones I can think of.

  • Hmm...public speaking is definitely one of my fears. One of my parents dying would also probably be the worst day of my life.

    failure is a fear of mine

    and not so much a fear as much as it makes me nausous (sp??) are shots/injections and large blood blisters.

    I HATE reading in public ever sense seventh grade when I wrote a story about my dog dying and had to read to my class. I made almost everyone in my class including myself cry and ever since then when I read in class or where ever I get all shaky and teary eyed. But the thing is I can get up and talk about random anythings and be perfectly fine. Im good with improv stuff but when I have to read it pshh....I lose it.

  • My greatest fear is if any abuse, kidnapping, or death happened to my children.


    I don't like speaking in public but I don't fear it. I could survive the experience and grow from it. Anything that gets me out of my "comfort zone", is probably a good thing.

    Fear of change is hard, fear of meeting new people is anxiety-ridden but I can become a better person by living through those fears....


    if I something happened to my boys....I am done.

    Octopi and Sting Rays, so friggin creepy. I think it's just how slowly and smoothly they move only to attack. For some reason sharks don't really get to me though.
