I ask because Teacher Terry has fear about crime that I do not have. By this I mean I do not “feel “ fearful in most all situations in my city and neighborhood.
I am not saying she is wrong and I am right, probably the opposite is true. When I used to walk a mile at night all of my friends said “aren’t you scared? “ No, I was not scared although one neighborhood I walked through was more iffy than mine and one in the other side.
But I do have fears.
1. Riding in mechanical things…cars, airplanes…don’t trust them if I am not driving. This is dumb because objectively I recognize that DH is a better driver than I am.
2. claustrophobic ideas such as coffin, narrow caves, cave diving….I have not had an MRI and do not know how that would go.
3. No longer much fear, but having no money was concerning to me to a point of light fear. To me, that represents no options. Being poor and stuck…scary.
These are the ones off the top of my head. Likely there are others.
Waht about you?
