More of the Christmas Day Selfies by waving at my cell phone. My son had no idea what he was doing when he told me why his selfies look better than mine. My arms are not long enough, but I can wave at the phone.
Charlie Brown on Phobias.
Lucy Van Pelt: Are you afraid of responsibility? If you are, then you have hypengyophobia.
Charlie Brown: I don't think that's quite it.
Lucy Van Pelt: How about cats? If you're afraid of cats, you have ailurophasia.
Charlie Brown: Well, sort of, but I'm not sure.
Lucy Van Pelt: Are you afraid of staircases? If you are, then you have climacaphobia. Maybe you have thalassophobia. This is fear of the ocean, or gephyrobia, which is the fear of crossing bridges. Or maybe you have pantophobia. Do you think you have pantophobia?
Charlie Brown: What's pantophobia?
Lucy Van Pelt: The fear of everything.
Charlie Brown: THAT'S IT! Fear of everything.
I am not sure how or where I found the above conversation, but it has answered my FEARS about my FEARS....
I suffer from Pantophobia!!!! I am the MadSnapper of Henny Penny-it is...If the sky can fall it will.
What is Pantophobia? Pantophobia is the fear of everything. The origin of the word pant is Greek (meaning every) and phobia is Greek (meaning fear)
This is my short list of 3 Fears that have been with me since as far back as I can remember.
Fear of DARK
Claustrophobia EXTREME. Includes being contained in any way. I can't read a book or watch a movie where someone is trapped.
Heights and WATER as in large bodies.
The longer list include anything my mind can come up with. Kids in trees will fall, Toddlers and dogs running free in front yards will run out in front of cars. Men climbing ladders will break their ribs when it turns over. (Bob did this)
you are getting my drift. Driving on interstates, riding with others on interstates, high speeds. I see the danger in everything. I don't want to and at least now I know what I have a fear of is only one word. Pantophobia.
At least I have no fear of cameras, but should I?
