Journal 25

Fear has pretty much been the topic for the last couple of journals, so I am all feared out. Fear is an interesting feeling. It keeps life interesting.

Some say that you can't have fun unless you do something that you're a little scared of. I think that this could be used for teenagers a lot. Teenagers get bored with life and need to feel something new. I think that teenagers like a risk. That is why they drive faster, do drugs, break rules, etc. The fear of the unknown is something that keeps life going.

Fear keeps things interesting. If I was not scared of the future and my parents, I would probably not try as hard in school. If I did not try as hard in school, I would probably waste more of my time on the internet and sleeping. If I was not scared of losing my job, I would show up to work whenever I wanted and take off the days where I just wanted to sleep. Being scared really just keeps life going. Without fearing things, life would be a boring scene of nothing.

All fear really is is a feeling in your mind. If you did not have fear, life may be easier. Fear keeps some people from doing things that they fear. For example, if a girl did not have a fear of being turned down she might ask out her crush. If a singer did not have the fear of singing in public, she may get a shot to be famous.

I have a lot of fears myself. I am scared of talking to people I do not know. I hate awkward situations a lot. I can also be scared of talking to boys. Other actual physical things I am scared of are spiders, the dark, getting hurt, forgetting my name tag for work, forgetting my homework, and a lot more. Some other mental things I am scared of are getting shut down, being ignored, feeling annoying, being a bad employee, and forgetting special dates.
