Blog #7 Fear
Fear is an obstacle people ignore throughout their lives or something they learn to overcome and better themselves by doing so. Fear isn't a tangible thing it's something that we perceive is physical and therefore takes the form of something wether it's spiders, bugs or an occurrence drowning, falling from heights. An example of fear restraining people is drowning. The fear of drowning can cause people to go throughout their lives without learning to swim this can be bad in the way that without knowing how to swim what would happen if you were on a cruise and the boat hits something hard enough to start sinking. The rafts are all gone due to panic how would you save yourself then. Swimming would be necessary to learn something new that might end up saving your life. A fear of heights although might not be thought to better yourself if overcome isn't really true. By overcoming a fear of heights by either parachuting or bungee jumping will help you become more outgoing and adventurous instead of just wondering "what if. . . I did ___".
