We had a thunder/lightening/rain storm
last night to end all storms. I do not
know if childhood fears were awakened
in me but, I was quaking in my boots.
I kid you not, I was truly afraid!
Once I got the adult version of me back
in gear, I began to ponder fear, fear as
its own entity . . . And yes, storms did
make me quake in my little boots as a
child!
Looking at fear square in the face, I
see I am afraid of the strangest things.
Losing my way to a given destination,
not dressed right for a certain occasion,
will I be able to carry on a conversation
as I've been out of the loop for a few
years?!
The sad thing is, when faced with each
of these things, I do just fine . . . so then,
why all the fear?! I suppose it's a natural
human reaction, but really, at my age?!
Disgraceful!
Can't help but wonder if it has something
to do with being closer to the end rather
than the beginning of one's life. I'll have
to ponder . . .
fearful as a child
how old did i say i was
lose fear already
