I am scared of a lot of things.
I am scared of heights.
And I'm deathly afraid of outer space.

But none of that will stop me
from doing the things I like.

I like ferris wheels.
So I ride them.
And I think about how it looks cool from up there.

You are not scared of heights,
you are scared of falling.
And I am scared of falling.

But I will not let my phobias stop me
I will live my life
Getting past my phobias.
Because I have the ability to.
So I will.

The author's comments:
I have the hugest phobia about outer space. I hate almost everything about outer space. I hate Sci-fi anything. I hate Starwars and Star Trek. And I'm slightly afraid of heights.
