Onward..
I've never been one to be scared of much. Calm, cool, collected... usually, despite upcoming or present dangers. I've pretty much seen or experienced it all, well... at least closer than most at my age. My many brushes with death, save by either a few minutes here, a 1/4 inch there. I should be dead many times over, I've witnessed and stared death in the face. Not even death scares me much anymore. I used to think that there wasn't much else that could truly scare me.
I was wrong.
Something does.
I'm terrified.
