Ten Young Adults Share Their Biggest Fears in Life
Tumblr

We can either let ourselves be overcome by the fears we find in our lives, or we can use them as fuel to live better. Someone once said "Fear is nothing more than the obstacle that stands in the way of progress. In overcoming fears we can move stronger and wiser within ourselves." This weekend, 16 people shared their biggest fears in life. With hopes that talking about their fears, maybe we can all see how small those things are compared to what's important.

"I guess my biggest fear would be ending up alone. As cliche as that sounds, I can't imagine going through it all without someone by my side."

"That I'll end up having a drinking problem."

"My biggest fear is that I sent myself so far away from my home just so that I wouldn't make it in the way I want to at school, and that I don't get everything out of my life that I want. I have a lot of dreams and I know what I want in my life even though I'm only twenty years old. I'm afraid I won't have that."

"Midgets."

"That's easy. Looking back on life and having regrets. There's nothing worse than that."

"I'm afraid I'm not happy with the way my life turns out. Wrong town, wrong place, wrong person."

"To have lived with out any purpose and die with out having given back to the world."

"To be told I can't have kids."

"Probably my biggest fear is being unsuccessful. Going to college, paying for school, all of it, for nothing."

"That I won't ever find someone capable of loving me. That I'll be...unloveable."

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
