Greatest Fear?

Simple as that. What is your greatest fear? Mine is poison. That's why I'm also afraid of spiders, snakes, and any animal which carries poison.

being in a situation where my kids need my help but I am unable to help them

after that (in no specific order)

crickets
pigeons
pitt bulls (the ones that are bred to fight, not the nice ones)
DHS

that's about it.

a tie-up between going blind, losing the love or respect of my loved ones (parents or gf), or my irrational fear of wasps and bees/flying insects (hearing one buzz by sends terror into my soul :eek: )

LotR rocks, even when the quotes are screwed up by poor spelling and grammar.

My greatest fear is the wind. As long as I can remember, I've lived on the top floor of apartment buildings (albeit small ones, no taller than 3 stories), and most of them have been drafty. Whenever there's a strong wind howling through, I feel like the top of the building's gonna get ripped off and fly away. After that, it's loneliness and heights, but the latter is only when I'm standing on top of a steep hill or cliff that's more than 10 feet off the ground below. Looking out a high window or off a balcony doesn't freak me out, but standing right next to a steep fall with no bars or windows... *Shudder*

I don't like poison either. I have more of a fear of catching a terminal illness- more one which can be caught rather than one which is genetic or developed or one you can't do anything about. I also don't like heights and water, but I don't find either particularly scary. What I really fear is heights and water, such as bridges over rivers. Ugh. I also fear being stabbed/blown up/sniped but that's not an irrational fear as everyone is out to kill me. Yes, you. And you. And you. I know your plans.

Incidentally, my pain tolerance threshold is about as low as the molten core of the Earth :p

Yes, I am a wimp.

It's a small pinch, and then a dull, comfortable throb.

Okay, I lied. I cannot (really cannot) stand dentists. Isn't it odd that my least painful experiences were getting teeth pulled?

The idea of letting a large hairy man poke about my moth with sharp, pointy metal implements is quite an unsettling thought.

Drowing or being burned alive, I think.

On a more day-to-day basis, I really hate being among large crowds, especially in a confined space.
