RE: ScaredyCatGuide Asks - Where Does Your Fear Come From?
I fell over when you said Ford Granada. Back in the 90's I needed a cheap car while in college and I bought a 1977 silver Granada for $500. Ended up painting a swoosh on it like the car from Strasky&Hutch. It drove for two years and died.
As to fear, I didn't even recognize fear until I went skydiving. The ten years since that experience, fear has grown within me little by little, to the point that I don't like highways and doubt i'll ever get on a plane again.
I needed a cheap car in the late 90's for college also and snagged a 83 Cutlass Surpreme (the broken down car in the story) got it for $1,000. Loved that car - wrecked it a year later falling asleep behind the wheel.
Lesson: Don't work two full time jobs at the same time. Ugh.
As for your fear, I would have thought skydiving would have the opposite effect. I've always wanted to do it....now you are giving me second thoughts lol!
I can picture your 83 Cutlass. lol.
No, skydiving was the worst thing I ever did to myself. It was fun in the moment, but it threw off my internal gyroscope. I'll have to make a post about it. That may give me some therapeutic relief.
Yes, do it!
