#1) The thought of falling short of God's "requirements/expectationson" on the day of reckoning, aka... Judgement Day!

Any fear I could possibly have is easily overshadowed by this one, because this is all that matters in the end, IMO. It scares me into a momentary state of utter silence to even imagine failing in this regard. I'm a motionless figure with zero expressions the moment this fear sets in. (I try not to think to deeply about it, but it's hard not to imagine those "what if" possibilities).


Besides that, another fear would be:

-- The fear of completely giving up. Life presents so many hurdles and along the way it's so easy to just give up and just quit trying. You may know deep down inside that giving up is not the path to success, so that possibility of completely walking away from "lost battles," and the fact that it's the easiest thing to do scares you a little.

I used to think about that a lot too... I haven't really thought that far over my head in years though. It used to freak me out when me and my bro used to have conversations about it.

I'm not sure if I'd be scared to be completley alone, I don't think I would. Now, if you're talking about relationships, I prefer being alone. Not as much pressure.

To me, all of those things would be scary. But I was originally referring to growing old without having a husband and children to share it with.

My greatest fear is simple and to the point: Growing up unhappy.

All I really want is to live a happy life with the time I have on earth, im sure thats pretty much the same for everyone. For me, living a happy life would be finding a woman, someday getting married, then doing things we enjoy together. My greatest fear is that that will never happen.


Other minor fears include:Public Speaking...college...other...stuffs...?

I'd rather get shot in the head at 60 then die at the age of 90 in a old folks home.
