QotW - What are you afraid of?
| Sun, 03-05-2006 - 9:13pm |
Fear is a natural part of being human. It might be something physical, emotional or spiritual, but unless you have transcended the mortal body, you are probably afraid of something. What is it?
I am afraid of dark water, especially moving or deep water. And I am afraid of heights, but I love to fly. I've tried to meditate myself out of these fears, but nothing has worked, so I simply try to avoid them. I'm not crazy about boating and I gave up swimming a long time ago!
I used to be afraid of speaking out in public, but now I really enjoy it, and I'm much better at accepting the existence of garden snakes in my yard!

Wow!
Of course, living in Florida, my other biggest fear is being attacked by an alligator, but that just goes with the territory!
The night before my Dad died, he was tranferred to the hospital care unit of the home where they lived.
I think
You should start a poll!
Spiders. #1
Tornadoes...never seen one, but fear them all the same.
I dream about them and often get trapped in those dreams because I lose sight that I'm even dreaming (ew!)
Let me see...what else? Oh..getting LOST! I can't find my way out of a wet paper bag! Navigation is NOT my strong point, so I panic if I feel I am lost or about to get lost (LOL). I can laugh about it now, because I have really been trying to overcome this fear by downloading maps from mapquest when I have to go somewhere I'm not familiar with.
It goes even farther though...if I'm someplace busy with other people and I get seperated, I will get that lost feeling and my heart is justa pounding! (LOL) I got lost as a child and thought it was over for me, of course the fact that my Mom was all wonky didn't make matters any better. (LOL)
I have pretty much overcome my fear of spiders and bees. I am allergic to both, but have learned to live with them. That doesn't mean that I won't kill them on impulse mind you...(ROTFL!)
