The Feeling called Fear

Fear was a weird feeling, different from the others. You see, happiness was a feeling. Everyone has felt happiness, some more then others, but everyone feels it. Then, you have depression. Depression is a bit closer to fear, but not exactly. You see everyone has felt depression, some people experience it more then they would like to say. Others are hardly ever depressed, but those are the lucky ones. Anger. Oh, most people can't hide the fact that they feel anger. Everyone feels anger, probably everyday, whether it's for thirty seconds or 30 minutes.

Then you have fear. Fear has always been an interesting feeling. Some live in the feeling, they deal with it everyday. Other's however, may forget how fear feels because they rarely experience it. Some people can face things head on without an ounce of fear. Then there are the people who scream when they see a mouse and get dizzy when the thunder is too loud.

It's weird how fear affects us so differently. How some people get excited when think about jumping out of a plane with a parachute on their back. For other people, that's their worst nightmare, the thing that would make them wake up in a cold sweat at 2:15 a.m. Some people love going to the circus to see those hilarious clowns, others scoot away and cover their face in the sight of those rainbow haired monsters.

You have some people, like myself, who hate being scared, so they want to face their fears head on. They know that heights are one of their worst fears so they want to jump out of a plane. Then you have some, like my sister, who also hate being scared, so they've decided that life is lived best in their comfort zone, if you don't have to face your fear, then you won't be scared as much, right?

And this. my friends, is why fear is a weird, but interesting feeling.
