3. i can't pretend to know how that feels
and although it seems trite to say something like "you're not alone," i want to say that.

9. whenever you have dreams about bugs
that's because they are usually crawling on you while you sleep.

the average human consumes close to 4 pounds of bugs in their lifetime when they crawl into your mouth when you're asleep.

14. i can't do anything about the past
nor can i live with the burden of the future. i can never know what the future will bring.

"live in the now" is a pedestrian enough statement, but when you strip your mind of some conditioning it enables you to be somewhat more true to yourself.

21. that's what i was going to initially post
and granted, i fear very little in life, it's still not true.

the most important thing i DON'T fear is death. i know that it will happen and feel ambivalent about it. at times i look forward to it.

23. Dying In A Car Accident
I am absolutely terrified of that. On the plus side.......I am a very cautious driver. On the down side.........I am the world's worst back seat driver and nag.
