Day 9 – Fears

The subject for today is fears.

Fear is a complex topic as you have so many different kinds of fear. You have fear of things, fear of life events, fear of people, etc. I thought I would maybe list 10 of my fears:

  1. Cats – growing up I saw my mom being terrified of cats and I always thought of them as evil animals. I’ve gotten better over the years but I’ve recently added it to my bucket list to get over it.
  2. Public speaking – I’ve always been afraid to get up in front of a crowd. I dreaded school presentations. To this day talking in meetings makes me nervous.
  3. Losing my sight – since a young age I’ve had a “lazy” eye. It’s not your typical lazy eye as I move it but I just can’t see fully out of it. So I have fear of losing it on both eyes. If I’m not wearing my glasses I get nervous sometimes that a flying object will take my eye out haha
  4. My kids getting hurt – as a parent you want to always protect your kids. It’s inevitable that in life you will get hurt but when you think about it happening to your babies it’s different than yourself getting hurt. That fear of knowing you will not always be there to protect them.
  5. Technology – technology has already taken over the world and slowly but surely is taking over our minds. I fear what will become of human interaction. You go out these days and everybody is on their phones not being in the moment.
  6. Unknown – the fear of just not knowing what is to come next in life. Not knowing what the next second will be.
  7. Mice/rats – they are gross and I will NOT be adding this to my bucket list to get over haha
  8. Clowns – they creep me out! Again no bucket list update on this one haha
  9. Roller coasters – I should probably get over this one…seems silly
  10. Germs – I’ve got issues with germs. I clean and wash my hands more than your average person, okay a lot more haha

There you have it…
