Your biggest fear
I have mentioned this in a blog post before - I'm not scared of many things - not scared of lions or elephants in the bush, I've been free diving with sharks, I don't mind spiders and creepy crawlies and I'm not scared of heights or flying etc. But two things that do terrify me are:
Snakes - those slimy, sly, sneaky and super dangerous creatures completely freak me out! it doesn't matter how big or small, thin or fat, poisonous or not - I hate them! And if I see one, I will disappear in seconds - as far as I can possibly run in the opposite direction!
Death - unfortunately, I can't out run this one. It is inevitable. But knowing that I am going to lose loved ones one day is heart breaking and devastating for me. I cannot bare to think of living life without them... I am also scared of dying myself - I am a Christian and I believe in Heaven but I struggle to grasp the concept of a place I haven't seen or been to...

Oh my gosh, free diving with sharks?! My hubs really wants to do that... and so do I! But I really am terrified that they will all decide to eat me at the same time ;) ha ha. Even though I know they don't actually eat (or want to eat) humans! It's such an irrational fear thanks to freakin' Shark Week!
ReplyDeleteI'm terrified of losing a loved one... I can't imagine the devastation. But I've also heard that dying is a really peaceful (for the most part) and spiritual experience. So if I could just die in my sleep, that would be great!
love your honesty caley! death is such a scary thing, and i totally agree it is hard to grasp a place we have not seen. but the crazy thing is that god promises us it perfect up there!
ReplyDeleteps - i am so glad i found your blog. i think we have a mutual blog friend Sheila :) and she pointed me in your direction and said you have a great heart. love reading your blog and learning about your family!
Love your post! I have always wanted to go swimming with great white sharks (in a cage, of course).
