Fears...

"Even death is not to be feared by one who has lived wisely." - Buddha
I am deathly afraid of spiders. The kind with the long thin legs. The kind that are sneaky. The kind you can't see but know they are there. And especially by the kind you CAN see but are too paralyzed to move or do anything about. This was my little attempt at facing that fear.. baby steps I say... enjoy :)
