Fear:
Fear, almost everybody has one whether it is afraid of the dark or arachnophobia. I myself am afraid of poltergeist. I’m not really scared of much else. There are common fears which a lot of people have and then there is the rare fear which you only find a couple people have. There are a variety of fears such as heights, darkness, being alone, scared of spiders, scared of insects or a certain animal, speaking in front of audiences, ghosts, confined or small areas, water and just things like that. Now all the fears I just mentioned are all common and can be found in the everyday life. A few rare fears are things like being afraid of saran wrap because you think some way you will get wrapped up in it or afraid of the sun. The word fear has many definitions and it just depends on how you look at the word. What does fear truly mean? No one can explain it for sure. Some say it’s the wide spread of the mind, others say that your born with it. My opinion on it is that it depends on how your mind works, how big your imagination is and how far it lets it go. The bigger the imagination the worse the fear will become, for example if you have a fear of the darkness then you can be able to form the darkness into a creature or a person. Some people can not imagine that type of thing so there fear stays weak, but people who can just spread there fear. People only fear what they think may hurt them, for example a spider. Sure there are more deadly things such as a snake but a spider is small and can fit almost anywhere, but that doesn’t matter to them. Now what is your opinion on fear?
