Yes, get on a plane on my own! That was the greatest thing I ever did and I am truly proud of myself for facing my fear and conquering it! I am not a good flier and only do it if I really really have to and I have always flown with someone before, but last year I managed to summon up the courage to go on a plane by myself! It was scary but I am soooooo glad I did it because now I have no fear in going on my own again, I guess it's the fear of the unknown. I flew out to Rhodes it was only a 4 hour flight but it was the first time I had done it alone! I am really proud of myself. it is very true what they say, the only thing to fear is fear itself. Once you have conquered your fear it becomes easy and you can lap up the pride you have in yourself, it also gives you confidence and does good for your self esteem.

Well, I just traveled to California by myself without my husband and I was always scare of traveling alone. I guess is possible to do anything and things are not as hard as they may appear.

I remember when I was younger I was being chased by a large dog and I was running and got to a fence that was as tall as I was... I jumped over the fence and landed on my back... the dog ran into the fence with a loud THUD. When I looked back on it I have no idea how I could have jumped that high and I still don't know to this day. Thanks Zelo

Of course I did!! What promitd me to do it was that I really really wanted to get tere!! One day in the middle of the night I just took a cab to the airport, board a plane to Phoenix Arizona, didn't tell anyone till I got there, then I called home to let Mom know where I was. I am so glad I went!!!!
