This is an oldie but had to repost considering the day! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Happy Friday everyone! And certainly Happy Friday the 13th! :-) Ah, the stuff from which movies are made.<\/p>\n
I actually remembering seeing the first of the Friday the 13th movies. At that time, it was a pretty ground-breaking movie! In my particular part of the country, New Orleans at that time, there was a very lively audience. People were actually running screaming out of the theatre! I don't think that happens too much anymore – too many things have happened to jade us about being afraid like that. However, at the time, a particular group of ladies of a certain age (who knows why the heck they were at that movie anyway) were sitting behind us in the theatre. They were the first to go – knocking over other patrons seated near them and bounding down the theatre aisles, screaming, "Oh Lord, Oh God, get me out of here." ;-) No, I am not even kidding.<\/p>\n
Anyway, a few days ago I posted something about living in fear and how I don't want you to do that to yourself! However, there is also the realization that we are all afraid of SOMETHING! Me, not too fond of heights or close places. I am not sure if I am afraid of clowns or just don't like them, but they do absolutely creep me out. I love the Cirque du Soleil shows that Matt and I have seen in Las Vegas, and it seems that sophisticated clowns do not creep me out. LOL. <\/p>\n
Then, of course, there are more soul-trembling fears, those things that go beyond just creepy-crawly fears; there is the fear that the world will never come to peace again, fear that children will always be starving, fear that some people will never "get it", fear that someone will always be mistreating a pet, fear of America's disrespect for their elderly, fear that our educational system will never improve, and so forth and so on.<\/p>\n
What do you fear? Do you think your fears are irrational, but you have them just the same? Or do you think that your fears are pretty well grounded? Do you know the root of your fear or is it something that just seemed to "pop up?" (That's me with my "fear" of clowns, I swear I don't know why!)<\/p>\n
Enjoy your Friday the 13th! <\/p>\n
