Ours is the Fury
I thought this would be a good idea for a thread. Basically because fear does odd things that affects our daily lives. Wether small or large, it affects our decisions in regards to actions we take. To some people, it can go so far as to alter life decsions they make, while sometimes the fears we have can simply change the route some take home from work.
I'll start. I'm completely terrified of tornados. Spinning columns of air that can completely demolish cars, buildings, and homes. I think the root of my fear is based on the tornado that I saw. I was traveling down the interstate during a severe thunderstorm, when suddenly this finger of god reached down and touched the road. I saw cars, trees, and chunks of building thrown in all directions. Luckily, I was far enough down the road that it didn't get close to me, but the image of that scene has stuck with me for a long time. Now when my county gets put under a tornado watch, I freeze up and start checking the weather for hours on end until the watch is lifted.
So list your fears if you feel like it. Wether irrational or justified, post them here. This is not a place for people to make fun of other people for their worries. So anyone who feels like they have the right to call someone else stupid for what they're afraid of need not post anything.
