"I [Jesus Christ] came that they might have life, and have it abundantly."

John 10:10 

Fear is an emotion given to us by God, molded in our beings from the time we were conceived, and it is used as an outlet if there is something unpleasant or 
formidable to us. It is also a chanel in which we learn to respect and revere.
Everything is given and is willed by God. But, our Lord said that He wants us to 
enjoy life. And fear, any kind of fear, was never meant to harm or destroy us and should never be a hindrance for us to bask in God's blessings.  

Note: I mean no offense to anyone who might be experiencing any of these cases.

Oh so you have it? Me too, I've a phobia for the tip of sharp metal objects.

I feel as though they're going to pierce my eyes everytime I see one. ^_^ Hahaha.

Avatar of RedSoxpawn

haha atleast you can laugh at it. Elevators are a bit hard to avoid hahahaha

Avatar of sarah07

^_^ If I'm in your shoes, I'd rather walk up and down the stairs. It gives you a chance to exercise.

^_^ I also used to have fear of manholes! But I got over that now.

Heck, too many things to fear.

I also have a weird phobia: hair elastics, rubber bands and any type of restrictive material near my neck or wrists. I don't know what its called either, and I'm also just scared of them.

Avatar of RedSoxpawn

sounds like fun, I bet you had some expirence with choking when you were young, thats why you don't like things like that around your neck, and your worried about losing circulation to your hands it sounds like with the things on your wrist

Avatar of Legilmens

Yeah, when I was in 7th grade, our teacher had us point hands so that they were pointing down and pinch our wrists until our hands started to get blue-ish to see how our viens worked, and when I was little they had to take some blood from me and they tied a rubber thing really tightly around my forearm and I was starting to loose feeling in my whole hand.

Avatar of RedSoxpawn

yeah it's called a tourniquet, I hate it when they do that

Avatar of Legilmens

It's really really freaky.
