My biggest fear is dying before my son is mature enough to be self sufficient.

My biggest comfort is being with my horse.

Biggest fear - Dying without leaving some kind of positive legacy. ( I want to have left something my family at least will be able to relish. Maybe a novel, a music compilation or some bass guitars maybe).

Biggest Comfort - Being creative. (That makes me feel less likely to pass without leaving something my family can remember of me. I write, make music/sing and make electric bass guitars).

my biggest fear is losing control of reality and ending up alone.

my biggest comfort is my dog. I know he will always love me unconditionally and never abandon me.

Biggest fear:: Having the police come for me.. I don't do anything illegal but have a fear of them..
I guess my comfort comes from my dog.. He's a wild and crazy little joker..

My biggest fear is being unable to convince my 84 year old mother she is a compassionate, caring, and valuable person.

My comfort is finding out my mother has lived another day.

This is interesting....Good question.

I think what makes me most fearful....has to be a toss up between the Dentist and the loss of freedom (for what little there is left, anyway).

What delivers me my greatest sense of comfort is knowing that there is a purpose for being "here" now, (whether or not we understand it) and that there is a far greater existance which awaits us after.

i fear that one day someone will tell me that i am hopelessly and permanently crazy. irrevocably insane.

i find comfort in that if that does become the case, my family will still love me.

My biggest fear is dying before my kids are self suffient - I'm the only stable person to raise them.

My greatest comfort are my daughters and knowing because I've led a good life, I'll be going to a better place one day.

My biggest fear is that I won't find my purpose before I die.

My biggest comfort is my faith in the Bible's promises for the future. (just answering your question honestly, not trying to start anything with this )

My biggest fear is my mum dying.

My biggest comfort is, as the Byzantine said, finding out my mother has lived another day, happy and healthy.

My biggest fear is not being loved and accepted by one man for who and what I am.
My greatest comfort is that my son loves me no matter what.
