What Is Fear To You?

[Icey*Fire]

Fear is something that I live with each and every day. Not for myself, but for one of my sons. My fear for him is inside of me and threatens many times a day to break through. Every day I want to just go out into the woods and just scream as loud and long as I can, hoping that the fear will go away. But I know it will return. Its like this huge wave of emotion that just has to come out, it overwhelms me on some days. And I know the deep sadness that goes with the fear shows through in my words on some days.
I try very hard to get past it and keep a smile on my face but it is so very hard to do sometimes. I dont have anyone to talk to about my son, so I keep it deep inside me,and I guess that causes the fear and sadness to build even more.
But I pray for him everyday, that he will be strong and that he will make it through. And that one day soon there will be no more fear or sadness.

My biggest fear is being involved in another motor vehicle accident. In '94 I was injured when a car water-planed on a curve and hit us head-on. I vowed I never wanted to hurt like that again. Yep, you guessed it. In '99 we were in a three vehicle crash when a car stopped for a left-hand turn was hit from behind, causing it to turn side ways in our line of traffic. Four months in a halo for three fractures in my neck was the result, along with numerous cuts and abrasions and fractured ribs. It took me a year to finally drive my car, that with the help of a therapist, and only out of town a block and back home. To this day I cannot do major highways!

GOS..Thanks for the wishes..I can tell from your words that you do understand. I remember being on the floor of the backseat as my son drove through Atlanta. I couldn't bear to see the multiple lanes of traffic going so-o-o fast.

Hope this makes sense

You always need to share with friends Henry, even if it is pain you are sharing. That is what being a friend is. We all want to feel needed, and when a friend shares their feeling with you, it makes you feel closer!

Succulent One thats true in many ways.

lol guess its my own insecurites and feelings of trust being broken constantly that stops me from doing so.

If your feeling of trust are being broken constantly, then those people are not your friends! That is a heart ache that is hard to let go, but you need to do it!

Yes it is a heartache that needs to be let go and then back to another Fear of mine.

Being totally alone with no one around me.

Henry, know a little of what you're saying. Someone caused me not to trust and it was almost like going through a grieving process.

Nancy sorry to hear that.

Guess what doesn't kill you can only make you stronger.

Although it doesn't lessen the pain.

Brings feelings of not being good enough, makes you doubt your own abilities and can stop you from reaching out again.

just thought this was good for here, if more people share a shoulder things might be better, some might have a better understand of true pain and hurt.

The Most Important Body Part
=============================

My mother used to ask me:
"What is the most important part of the body?"

Through the years I would take a guess at what I thought was the
correct answer.

When I was younger, I thought sound was very important to us as
humans, so I said, "My ears, Mommy."
She said, "No Many people are deaf.
But you keep thinking about it and I will ask you again soon."

Several years passed before she asked me again. Since making my
first attempt, I had contemplated the correct answer. So this
time I told her, "Mommy, sight is very important to everybody,
so it must be our eyes. She looked at me and told me, "You are
learning fast, but the answer is not correct because there are
many people who are blind."

Stumped again, I continued my quest for knowledge. Over the
years, Mother asked me a couple more times and always her answer
was, "No, but you are getting smarter every year, my child."

Then last year, my grandpa died.
Everybody was hurt.
Everybody was crying.
Even my father cried.
I remember that especially because it was only the second time I
saw him cry. My Mom looked at me when it was our turn to say
our final good-bye to Grandpa.

She asked me,
"Do you know the most important body part yet, my dear?"

I was shocked when she asked me this now.
I always thought this was a game between her and me.
She saw the confusion on my face and told me,
"This question is very important.
It shows that you have really lived in your life.

For every body part you gave me in the past, I have told you was
wrong and I have given you an example why.
But today is the day you need to learn this important lesson."

She looked down at me as only a mother can.
I saw her eyes well up with tears. She said,

"My dear, the most important body part is your shoulder."

I asked, "Is it because it holds up my head?"
She replied, "No, it is because it can hold the head of a friend
or a loved one when they cry.

Everybody needs a shoulder to cry on sometime in life, my dear.
I only hope that you have enough love and friends that you will
always have a shoulder to cry on when you need it."

Then and there I knew the most important body part is not a
selfish one. It is sympathetic to the pain of others.

People will forget what you said...
People will forget what you did....
But people will NEVER forget how you made them feel.

True or not, the story makes you stop and think.

Be blessed. Be a blessing. Get your shoulder ready....

Or feel free to use mine if you need it!

I fear truly and honestly that i may be leaving the net for good and not coming back. Feeling this way hurts but i know that being online and hurting people isnt good either. Trying to resolve issues may help but i am not sure i can last that long.

Sorry i just really needed to get this out.

 

[Icey*Fire]

Henry I am sorry that you feel you must leave Lit. You do have friends here..I am one of them..I know I am not here during the same hours you are but feel free to email me at anytime..
At one time I too, thought of leaving Lit. when I was hurt by someone I cared about on here.. but I stayed and I am glad I have.
I have met more friends. you included.

{{{{{HUGS}}}}}
for you Henry.....

Icey thank you. That was written during a very low ebb for me, it helped me a little to get it out, vent so to speak and now regret saying it as i do so many times.

I am meeting more friends each day and always have them in my heart most times if not all the time. Some may say i worry too much but i don't think you ever can ever worry enough.

Hope this makes sense and above all else i am not leaving
