We are afraid of the wrong things.

I think that this statement applies to many people. People who worry about what others think of them, people who rack their brains trying to remember what last they wore when going out with that group of friends. People who are afraid that they will be judged by others because of what clothes they wear, what car they drive or where they live. Those are the people who are afraid of the wrong things.

To me those are petty things in life to be afraid of. I personally don't think that I fall into that category of people. Things that I am afraid of are; making sure I look at the prices of groceries while doing my monthly shopping before putting them into the basket. Making sure that I always have my seat belt on and all the doors are locked while driving. Being very vigilant while walking to my car after class at night.

Now these are the situations/things that I am afraid of. Put into perspective what is important to you. Once you have done that, the things that are most important to you are the things that you are most afraid of losing. Life is too short to be afraid of things that aren't really important in terms of the big picture for your life. So don't let those things take up too much of your time!
