Ashes to ashes , dust to dust
Nercrophobia!!
------
Undeniably , everyone has a fear of death. Yes , i believe even the holiest of monks fear death .
Of course , you might go "Fiona ! Hello ? You're 18 and have a long way ahead of you !"
Yes but on a pessimistic note , who knows what will happen in the next moment ?
I might click on Publish after completing this post and the monitor might just explode into my face and splattering brain mush all over the room with fragments of my skull.
I am so afraid of death , and this fear has been escalating to scale great new heights. I walk down the stairs clinging on very tightly to the railings for i am afraid that i would trip and fall to my death or even worse, paralysis.
Paranoia ? Indeed.
Every household appliance to me is a liability. Even the most innocent looking two seater sofa scares the shit out of me whenever my imagination gets going because i imagine the sofa toppling over and smothering the breath out of me. WTF?!!!!!!!! Thats definitely not a possible scenario right ?
Not surprisingly , i cross roads with utmost care and speakin of roads , i have this really warped thinking.
Always wear nice and clean undies when you go out because you'll never know when you might meet with an accident !
How are the two linked , you might ask.
Indeed ! Lets say there's a laceration near your crotch. Obviously the paramedics would have to strip you in order to get to the injury. And you certainly won't want the medics to see you stark naked save for a pair of panties which you affectionately nicknamed 'Holey-Moley'.
Moral of the story ? ALways wear nice underwear. And you'll never know when you'll meet a mysterious Johnny-Depp lookalike too.............................
Okay , i digress.
Back to my fear.
Actually , i think i fear death happening to my family and friends more than i fear it happening to myself , especially to my grandparents.
I get sick with worry whenever the phone rings at the most unearthly times like 3am , having watched too many drama serials where if the phone rings during the graveyard hours , its an ominous sign and the phone call would definitely be from a crying relative bringing bad news.
I really pray that they would live to a ripe old age with dozens of great grand children running around them.
Let me end this post with a quote from the bible
"While the Lord delays His coming, death works incessantly. There is no moment when its scythe is idle. We may soon feel its leveling blow. The debt of dying is due from us and all earth-born. "It is appointed unto men once to die."--Heb. 9:27."

And i fear....

Okay this is really funny.
Was searching the WWW for a word describing a fear of death for my earlier post and i stumbled along this really wacky fear.
Fear of what ?
Fear of...... An erect penis !!!
And its called Medorthophobia !!!!!!!! LOL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can you imagine this scenario..
Guy suffering from Medorthophobia (GSFM) is havin a stroll in the park. A bikini clad lady walks past him and her vital stats are 36DD-24-34.
GFSM has a natural reaction and he is horrified. GFSM runs to the nearest gents.
GFSM locks himself up in a cubicle and pulls down his pants.
Starts banging his crotch into the wall and screaming "Down boy ! DOWN!"
Okay you may not find it funny but it really cracked me up. :D
I pity the guys who suffer from this phobia. May the force be with you.
