Is there anything that really scares you? Some people say that they fear nothing, but i think that we all have fears and insecurities. So, is there anything you're specially scared or afraid of?

I am afraid of losing a loved one, of flying and of heights. I just can't control being afraid of them. It's really unreasonable and irrational for me no matter how much I reassure myself that its nothing.

yeah, many humans have been afraid of those things since we're what we are. One day maybe they will explain us why.

Or much better if they could find a vaccine or a cure for it.

lightning I am sure everyone is afraid of something. There are a few things that I fear, but I think the major one is fear of not being worth, not being important enough. I fight it, always have, but it's there. I know I shouldn't, I know that me being adopted was actually a great thing. But the feeling I had was always that I hadn't been important enough for people to want me, to keep me. Later on my teen years, when we all are a bit difficult, my adoptive parents were at a loss on how to deal with me I suppose, so they used to tell me that they will just send me back to my birth parents. They really didn't mean it - or maybe they did - but the fact is that again I was feeling that I wasn't worth by myself. That I could be discarded if I wasn't exactly the way they wanted me to be.That if I was just me, I wasn't important or enough to keep. Later on in my marriage when things were bad and stress high, again I "learned" that I was important only if and when I conformed and was exactly what people wanted me to be. Otherwise I could easily be discarded. I was finally able to work this out within myself and have since made sure that I am who I am and that I remember that I am worth because I"m me. I learned to disregard my insecurities and minimize my need to feel I'm important to the people I care about. But I know that deep down the fear is still there.

I am afraid of losing my loved ones and those who are closest to me. They are an integral part of my life, and should they not be around tomorrow, I will suddenly feel a sense of emptiness, loss and sorrow. It is like I have lost a part of me. Then life will never be the same again.

Yeah i can see what you're saying. That people you mentioned is already part of who you are, so not having them with you would leave a big blank. Hope that it never happens! :)
