Carpediem 0 #26 November 20, 2006 Looking back on life and wishing I had done something different. You'd feel so helpless then. . . I now make a point to be able to look back at each past week and go "Fuck ya! That was awesome!" Those who do, can't explain. Those who don't, can't understand.

jimmytavino 16 #27 November 20, 2006 sudden unexpected sounds, images or occurences tend to make me jump... but i settle out real quick and then can deal with them... People who declare that since they are afraid of skydiving and of "looking waaay down", and of heights.... that I too should be scared, well those sort of people frighten ME. jmy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jewels 0 #28 November 20, 2006 Snakes creep me out, but I am really afraid of MOTHS--the kind that dive bomb you and then flutter around in the lamp shades. We get hoardes of them here in late May/early June and they are everywhere. How they get into a house when all the doors and windows are closed is just beyond me--but they do. It's apparently a personal vendetta and they come to find me.TPM Sister #102 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Similar to you, the only thing that comes to my mind is the fear of dieing alone. And rejection follows a close second.What goes up, must come DOWN!!!

brianfry713 0 #45 November 20, 2006 I'm afraid of everything, but mostly dying, getting hurt, or bad things happening to people I care about. I still get scared before a skydive or BASE jump, but I try to not let it get in the way. I think the fear helps keeps me alive by slowing my progression to a normal rate. I'm afraid of people that aren't afraid of dying while they jump.BASE 1224, Senior Parachute Rigger, CPL ASEL IA, AGI, IGI USPA Coach & UPT Tandem Instructor, PRO, Altimaster Field Support Representative Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
