what is/are your greatest fear that you want to conquer?that you wish it would'nt exist no more..?i have so many fears in life that no matter how i try to conquer it,i find it very difficult..
1.DEATH--i know that God owns us.and time will come that he'll take us from this world..its just that,i have so many unfinished businesses that i am afraid that i wont able to accomplish it when this time comes.
2.FIRE--because 10 years ago,our house was suffocated by fire..and at that time,it was very difficult for us to live a new life and move on..and it really affects our emotions..and i am afraid that it will happen again.
3.THE FEAR OF BEING ALONE AND TO BE DESERTED--im so sick and tired being left by someone that i love.i just wanted to be love,but seems like,nobody wants it..its the biggest desease today..to be deserted by the one you love..i dont want to feel that feeling no more..
4.CHANGES--i know that change and death is the only constant in this world.and we can do nothing about it.i am just afraid that when changes comes,i might not adjust into this and that people arounds me might left me behind..
those are the fears that i admit that were difficult to conquer..but i am always trying..because those things that i fear were part of my everyday life..and i know that time will come that i might conquer those fears i had..
how about u?what are/is your greatest fear in life?

Wow I just had a seminar which tackled that subject and how to concquer it. I was also given exercises that would put me in a situation facing it. It was quite frightening at first but when your finally in it you just have to face it and most of the fears that we have it is caused only by us and is not really fear itself. We create this fear sometimes to delay some things in our lives or it has become a comfort zone for us not to move one with our lives. As our mentors have said fear will always be there but you can conquer it by simply facing it head on and move on to the direction you want to go thru. Even though you've conquered it it will haunt you every now and then but if you would not allow to grow in you it would not stay with you.

My first greatest fear is that when I die my kids will not have enough happy memories of the time they shared with me.
The only other fear...spiders! Eeek! Those things should be obliterated from the face of the earth. I think the nasty things seek me out to get a good laugh at scaring me to the point of near-stroke or shock.
They really ganged up on me today, first a huge one in my bathtub as I was going to take a shower, then later I open my mailbox out front of the house to find a large one - so I slammed the door shut leaving the mail inside. I figure if they are that big they can get jobs, pay rent, read the mail sitting in my box and pay those bills that are probably in there. ;)

i have a social anxiety problem. being in public around ppl make me very nervous and tense. it would be nice to just go shopping and not having to try and NOT freak out.

Social Anxiety is much more common than people realize sometimes. I have heard of antidepressants which can help with that. Good luck. :)

well for now my greatest fear is my boss, i am just so afraid of her that i do not look at her eyes when she passes every morning at my table, and when i am being summoned to her office, she is a terrorizer. And i will be free of that fear in couple of days when i muster enough courage to resign..second fear is running out of money or food for my children...i just cannot bear to imagine it.

I don't know if I will laugh on what you've wrote in there.well,think of this,If you have the courage to resign,all your fear will be lost.and you'll never get to see your boss from the day after you resigned..
and the for your second fear,just work hard and make your children your strength.your a good mom and im sure you wouldn't let that happen.

My greatest fear in life is, having regrets.. Especially when it comes to life.. Everythin is replacable and can be earn back, but a life cant be brought back.. So when u got a love one, tell that person, dun wait till he/she is gone b4 u regret.. By then, it will be too late and nothing is gonna change that.. The regret will be for life as, there wun be another person just like him/her :)

I just started a discussion on my fear of flying. You are invited to read it.
Fear is such an awful emotion to experience.
I use to have a fear also of a roach flying in my ear. It happened to my girlfriend, that is why I always cover my ear with my hair.

My greatest fear is that one day when i wake up in the morning and find that i have lost all my child memories or whichever i had until now. I remember nothing but that i have lost my memories. That thing would be really scary if it happens with someone.

Dying is inevitable and somehow I've come to terms with it. It's hard but we have to be ready for everything and anything. So, if you have to ask what I fear the most, is heights. Yes! Just put me on the third floor of any building and make me look down, either my knees will turn to jelly or...my knees will turn to jelly.:)
Whenever I see those futuristic elevators that are shown in movies wherein it's situated outside the builiding and it's made of clear glass, you can be pretty sure that I won't even dare riding in something like that. My husband even have to beg me to go with him on the Ferris Wheel. That's how much I hate heights.
