Welcome to Gaia! ::

I am afraid. I am afraid of a lot of things. Every day I am surrounded by things that make me scared. Some of them are little, some of them are more serious. Fear is a feeling that you are impending something bad to happen. I'm afraid that I am going to fail this test. I'm afraid that I'm going to be late for an important event. Fears can be very small too. I'm afraid that I'm going to have to the dishes. I'm afraid that I'm not going to have any time to play Xbox. Fear doesn't have to be life threatening or dangerous. I am afraid of saying something offensive every time I say something.

The first solution that comes to mind is that I should just keep my mouth shut. That's hard for me to do. First of all, because of my unique perspective of the world and everything in it (which most people underestimate) is one of my most valuable qualities. I feel obligated to share it. So by choosing to remain mute, I fear that I might keeping someone from being freed from their troubles. I have to weigh my fears. Which is worse: fear of keeping my ideas out of the world and be as though I wasn't there or the fear that what I say will be taken the wrong way and get subjugated, punished, and possibly exiled?
My ideas, are my contributions to the world, my footprint. I can't keep them bottled up inside. Never being remembered is something else I am afraid of. It's a fear I can't face when I get to it. It's one that can only be dealt with here and now. I don't want to leave the biggest mark or even an important mark. I just don't want to disappear after I pass away. Because if I'm forgotten, there will be nothing left of me. That makes me terrified. So I will face my fears as they come. If I have to chose of which fear to be most afraid of that I don't need to worry because I know that if I still have 1 life left, I can still win the game no matter how bad the boss is.
