Are You Afraid of Death?

Have you ever realized that you were more fearless than you imagined?  That something that haunted you, when come face to face, is not as threatening as you originally believed?  I’ve been scared of silly things and of life-altering things.  I used to cry when a stinkbug was in my room, but pet a live, wild snake.  I dropped out of high school with little regard, but I cried for hours after a car accident because I was terrified of the consequences, of being arrested because I fled the scene.
