Our New Word is "Fear"

Hedda Fears the Bright Lights of the City (c) 2009 by Tina M. Harris

What are the things that strike fear into your heart? Is it the mere sight of a snake slithering by, or it something deep in your psyche that you can't quite name? Fear is, unfortunately, an emotion that many of us are all too familiar with at this stage in our lives and the life of our country. Fear can be a good thing -- it can protect us from taking dangerous risks -- or it can stop us cold and keep us stuck in one spot afraid to take a risk and venture out.

What do you fear most in life -- and how can you demostrate this visually? Spend a little bit of time thinking about fear and how it affects you -- and then get out there and show us what fear means for you. Your entries are due no later than Sunday, March 15th, so I am afraid there's not much time! Send your submissions soon!
