I am Absolutely Fearless!

I have no fears. I am absolutely fearless. This is the total truth. Oh, sure I'm afraid of death and loneliness but aren't we all? So, aside from those two fears, I am essentially without fear. Alright, I'll admit one fear I have. I do have a fear of poverty. I fear being reduced to abject poverty, having to rummage through garbage cans to get bits of food which I take back to my cardboard box that I sleep in under the highway overpass. But that's a justifiable fear so it doesn't really count. As I said, I'm fearless.

Alright, alright, I'll be honest. Along with poverty, I'll just add that I'm also afraid of contracting a debilitating illness or disease. And, while we're at it, I guess I do have a fear of heights and we're all afraid of the terrorists, right? (I know I am). And, hey, so what if I'm afraid of spiders? Everyone's afraid of those scary creatures along with rats, skunks, raccoons, bears, wolves, foxes, giant, man-eating squirrels, flying vampire fish, ten foot-tall, saber-toothed hamsters, and on and on, etc.

But, aside from all that, I'm absolutely fearless.
