For me, Im not scared of much of anything really anymore. Number one, Im scared of failure, and number two, Im scared of being hurt.
I am the baby of the family, and everyone is expecting me to finish college. My sisters tell me Im the family's last hope for success. My Grandparents just know I will succeed. My parents think Im the smartest, most perfect child(other than Im lazy). My brother, well he just thinks Im a genius. They all tell me "there's no pressure though" but Im scared of failing them all.
Im scared of being hurt, because, all of my life I have seen pain in some form. I wont go in detail, becuz its not a pity party for Gentle Soul. So, Im just sick of being hurt, and its hard to bring my guards down.
I have always been a tomboy, and never afraid of anything "creep and crawly". My fears, although, few in numbers, are very large to me. Failure is my largest fear.

I think it is for most everyone, little sister.

Well said little sister! But if you have the love of those around you you are a success!
