#0074 | fear is a restraint

Haiku for You | fear is a restraint

Submitted by Mel in Hertford, United Kingdom.

Here’s Mel’s story:

“I hate when people tell me they have a fear of flying just because they have some distant thoughts of the plane crashing or a terrorist hijacking the flight. I have a legitimate phobia of plane travel and on those instances when I have no choice but to fly somewhere, like for a funeral or a business trip, I have to be heavily medicated to even walk into that big metal sarcophagus.

So please, if you don’t enjoy flying, that’s fine, but don’t tell me you have a fear of it unless you really do.  You’re making people like me look like pansies.”
