Eight Fears

I have definitely been facing several of my fears head-on recently. Here's my top eight.

1. Spiders: I am deathly afraid of spiders. Once in Brazil, there was a huge gray spider crawling behind me. Its mouth opened up in the middle of its body. Luckily, since it was at someone's house they saw it and killed it with a flipflop. The next time I saw another spider like that was at an aquarium where they had a special display of the most poisonous in the world. Nice.

2. Getting stranded: I see people by the road on a two way highway all the time because their car broke down. I'm afraid of that happening and not having anyone to call. Better be prepared!

3. Offending people and not realizing it: Sadly, some people hurt me with words quite often. I hope that I always remember that kindness begins with me! 

4. Not being remembered: I hope to make a change in this world and definitely want to be remembered as someone who made the world brighter.

5. Forgetting something really important: There's nothing like packing up the things that help make up your life and praying that you've not forgotten something big or it ended up in the wrong place.

6. Never getting married again: I believe in love and a life without love, isn't a life at all. 

7. Not finding a job: I've been going through this one lately. It is tough to keep your head above water. I really don't like filling out electronic forms and having a computer sift through it. I'm not quite sure what keywords everyone is looking for. 

8. Being a failure in the way people around me like to put it. I often get told that I won't be able to support myself and that I won't be anything. Hmm. . . guess you don't know until you try because I'm definitely going to try starting now!
