Journal #18 - Biggest Fear

My biggest fear would have to be not achieving my best. I have already been sucessful in a lot of things in my life, such as golf, track, school, and other things. One of my biggest fears would be if somehow I lost all this and could not do this anymore. One thing that would take away the athletic aspect of my fear would be becoming paralyzed such as if I had gotten in a car wreck. Then I would not be able to use my legs which would end my athletic career. Another thing that could end my acedemic career of having very good grades would be a head injury. I do not like to think that I would not be able what I have always done before. Another big fear that I have is getting in very big trouble, such as with the law or even just with something at school. I have never been much of a trouble maker and I like to think that I keep to myself when it matters. But I have such a strong concience that whenever I mess up or am mean to someone, I usually feel very bad and do not want to continue being mean. I do not like to be mean becuase of this feeling, I never feel good after saying something rude to someone. I have been raised by my parents in a way that promotes good behavior as well as good manners. I like to think that I use these qualities in everyday life. I try to follow the good example that my mom and dad have presented to me. I have always been afraid of getting in trouble with the law, even though I have stayed away from bad things such as drugs or other illegal substances. I have only had one detention in high school, and it was for inconvienently taking a trip to the bathroom during Mrs. Blemlers class. So considering that, I think that I have stayed away from this fear and have stayed out of trouble.
