Week 2: Fear

I don’t think our fears are rational; sharks only kill five people annually. The things you would least expect to kill people are the things that kill the most people. People would just expect sharks to kill more people because they’re big, scary, they look mean, and they have a lot of teeth. The other things such as falling out of bed would be something no one would think about dying from. High school football would be another thing nobody would expect to die from, because most teenage boys just think of it as a hobby and they’re not scared of it, because it’s suppose to be a fun sport for them to play. In my opinion I think spiders deserve our fear. I’m terrified of spiders, because they come in all different size, small, medium, and large. You never know when you’ll see one. Spiders could be in your bed at night when you’re sleeping and bite you. Spiders could be poisonous and possibly kill you. Snakes are another thing that people should fear, because snakes are dangerously poisonous, and snakes move and strike very fast, faster than a human would be able to move. I think that just shows that no matter what the size of something is anything can be dangerous or kill you. Also no matter what the thing is it could kill you, I guess this shows you should beware because anything is possible and anything can happen at any time. Even the most bizarre things.
