Do the things in life that scare you most

I’m terrified of flying; I have to take drugs (legal ones, prescribed by my doctor) just to be able to get on a plane. I dread the feeling of falling; the last time I went on a high dive (you know, those really high diving boards at swimming pools), I was so scared to jump that I had to climb back down the ladder (much to the annoyance of the ( Read more... )

Funny, I am just reading up on Hinduism for my impending visit to the big temple in Neesdan and they say that you aquire rewards for good deads, yet one has to perform good deeds without thought of a reward to get closer to god. Silly pegans.

Hi there. This may seem a bit of a stupid question, but I would be very interested in knowing on what basis you did choose this charity.

Hey there. I knew about this charity because I often temp in their office. The idea of the skydive was suggested by one of the nurses (there's a group of us doing it). You might want to check out the Just Giving website, as it seems like a cheap way for charities to have access to online sponsorship.

Hey there. Nice to find you on LJ.

I've been doing a lot of that lately. After I was mugged back in March, I realised that there were starting to be far too many things in life that I'm afraid of. So I'm setting out to conquer them.

Except girls :)
