What is your greatest fear of all time?

[Hellion]

:devil My greatest fear is failing at everything that I have worked for so hard in my life.I'll be damned if that is going to ever happen.that is why I am going back to school,I just hope I have a decent job before the unemployment benefits run out.2 months left unless I can get an extention.

Drowning or death by fire. Yah, I guess burning to death. I had an ex who burned down the trailer smoking. I had to help peal his skin after and put on this cream stuff.

It was horrible. It hurt him soooo bad.

I don't want to ever be burned like that.

my puter did this, not me (double post) :blushing

Something happening to my daughter

[Scary Guy]

Not so much death but what comes after. Being an atheist I believe that all my thoughts and memories will be stripped away into the void and I no longer exist in any form. That pretty much scares the shit out of me and always has.

Death by drowning doesn't sound like much fun either, or a slow death in genenral.

That sudden stop at the end of a long fall.

Something happening to my daughter

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Pretty much, something happening to my child. I was completly overbaring with my nephews, having had a big part in rasing both of them, I can only imagine what Im going to be like with my own, I am also affraid of being so overbearing that I will emotional damage my child =( Hey what can I say, atleast Im aware of it and know I have to change somethings so I don't relfelect my fears on my child.

My worst fear use to be of my brother dying. Getting shot or stabbed, something of that nature. He did get both shot and stabbed but he never died thank god. Otherwise I would be so much more fucked up then I am today.

Having a foundation, yes as funny as it may seem its scares the shit out of me. Perhaps it's because I've never had something solid. Just the idea of it makes me feel like Im being held down, I not experiencing life to it's fullest, and I start to panic. Im warming up to idea though now, no that I dont have a choice, and for the simple fact that its no way for my child to live. I've never felt like Ive ever had a real "home" I don't want my son to feel that way.

Im a little afraid of heights, but little fears like that are trival to me. For the most part I embrace them, so I no longer have fear.

for example I use be affarid for Sharks when I was young, instead of looking away in fear, I went to the library and got a bunch of books on them. I learned what beautiful and graceful animals they are. And now have no problem with them what so ever.

I would say something happening to my kids, instantly ...

but honestly, something's more likely to happen to me (I get very sick a lot), so actually I have more fear of my own self and me not being there for my kids because of it.

I know I've responded to a question like this on DGn before, but I'm far too lazy to go looking for it.

My greatest fear, as it has been for almost a decade, not finding any purpose, or meaning, or direction, to my life. I fear that I will wander aimlessly until I die, like Hansel and Gretel in the woods, without even breadcrumbs to aid me.

ah, but there is no *find* - you pick, you do. when you're done, you pick again. if you don't finish it, you pursue it until you die, or your priorities change, and you pick a new one.

Maybe that is how it works for you, Torn, but it's not how things work for me.

It will be a process of discovery. It will have to be. Because I have no clue, right now.

[Kit Kat P]

right now it's civil war or huge backlash against homosexuality

of course... i know this, i just like to over-simplifiy things sometimes!! :grin

Are you a lesbian? If not then that shouldn't be your largest fear. Maybe I'm wrong but I think there are better things to be afraid of.

[Nevaeh]

growing old and being trapped in a slowly desintegrating body

[EvilEve]

greatest fear, huh...? i'll have to think about it.... return to this spot in exactly... 7.5 million years.

*fast forwards in time*

i have an answer....

my greatest fear (for the most part) has alread come true... i'm no longer with the one i love so dearly (different story for a different time)... my heart is breaking, yet i can't cry anymore... i'm afraid i'll die of a broken heart.

granted, everyone says that when they're hurt,... but i'm serious. the face i put on in public is nothing more than a mask to hide what's truely going on inside my psychoticly repressed mind.

time will heal it, but it'll only be so long before that scar get's ripped open again.

can't eat, can't sleep, hair's changing back to it's original light color, along with a few more grey's just for added effect.

i'm going to die of a broken heart.... no other factors will kill me, i don't think. i can only imagen my heart slowly beating before nothing else is heard... silence will be my only comfort. thoughts of lost love will fill my mind.

my heart will break in two.

the more i think about it, the stronger the possibility of it happening grows.

my world is shattered, my heart in tiny pieces on the floor, no amount of duct tape, nor super glue can hold it together again. humpty-dumpty.

i'm sad now...

Death by fire. Being burned alive is something I would rather not endure.

Grow old to the point where you lose your mind, aka Alziemers Disease. Your mind is the only thing you can truly call yours.

[Reaper]

Dreaming that you are falling from a very high place and actually hitting the ground before you wake up. They say that if that does happen for some reason, your heart stops. Usually you wake up from the sudden rush of blood and adrenaline. Seems impossible since the scare wakes you and I remember having a couple of these dreams before.

[Soulrev]

My only fear is losing control. Losing control of my mind and my life. Which is starting to happen.. Losing control of my life, that is. I won't let it happen. It can't. I'd rather die.

[bean]

Being controlled, heartbreak, drowning.

A certain ex-wife destroying my happiness because she needs attention, and has to make everyone around her misserable. Destroying the happiness down the line between Odims and I.
