As people, we have a lot of different fears. People can be afraid of the dark, afraid of certain animals, or afraid of other people. Some of these fears can be valid or invalid. For example, I am afraid of heights, or more appropriately the sudden stop at the end of a fall from one of these great heights. I also am afraid of speaking in front of a group of people, no matter how safe the environment is. No rational reason for it, but I know I would rather face more fearful and terrifying monsters than speak in front of a large group. I know one day, I will be called to give a sermon or two, not because I want to, but because God will want to show me the fear is silly and that God has a great sense of humor. However, there is one thing I dislike more than anything else and will refuse to do unless it is absolutely necessary. I dislike public restrooms. Or more to the point, I hate being in a stall in a public restroom. You sit and hear people coming in and out, and you work in your mind...
