It is difficult not to be afraid sometimes.
When I watched my CA grandson skateboard ramps at his skateboard park, I was afraid.
I am glad to report that only beautiful amazing things happened.
If I watched him more often, I would have to find a way to manage my fear so it wouldn’t contaminate his fun.
Did you realize fear is contagious?
Have you ever caught fear from someone else? Has your fear contaminated others? What are you afraid of?

The image above was received on my walk this afternoon. The longer I was out in the world, the more I hoped the Weather Channel’s forecast of 100% chance of rain beginning at 9 PM.was correct.

What I fear most is that my grandchildren would be bullied or made fun of. I babysit a special needs child and I am very sad about the issues I'm sure she will have to go through. We protect them from falling down, The monsters under the bed and things that go bump in the night. I combine fear and heartbreak knowing that kids and people can be mean. Fear contagious? Absolutely…
What a compassionate comment – thank you for sharing it with us.
