What Are Your Fears?

Continuing on with 30 Days. If you don't know what I'm talking about, check HERE

Describe 3 legitimate fears you have and explain how they became fears.

1. I fear losing those who are close to me. I'm scared of losing family members and close friends. I had a dream once over a year ago that Jacob died and I woke up hugged him and started sobbing. It felt so real that I cried on and off all day.I fear losing Daniel, and I just don't know how my heart could ever take it. Watching my mom lose a parent last month made me sad, knowing that someday that will happen to me too. I don't want to think of people I love dying. I've always had that fear though..I think a lot of people do.

2. I fear clowns and mimes. I CAN handle clowns to some point, if they're happy clowns and I know the person. We went to church with a guy who dressed up as a clown. I could roll with that. Mimes just creep me out beyond belief. I hate that they don't talk. Hate it. My fear of clowns developed pretty young. My first two memories of them are from when I was probably 4 or 5. There was a circus theme at VBS one year and clowns came into our classroom. I can remember crawling under a table and sitting there until they left. Also, the Goodyear Blimp flew over our house and my dad came to get me out of bed to see it! We got outside and there was clown waving in the lights on the side of the blimp. I went tearing back into the house!

3. I am fearful of car accidents. It's scary to know how vulnerable we all are in cars. We're in charge of keeping ourselves and everyone else on the road safe. All it takes is one bad decision and, BAM.  I've become more fearful after having Daniel, but I'm pretty good at pushing the fear aside. I've been in a few minor accidents so that's where that fear comes from. The sound and smell of crunching metal sickens me.
