Chutzpa, nerve, audacity.

Call it what you will, but many of us can't go past our fear. For example, I'm afraid of centipedes. Absolutely terrified of 'em. I'm not too keen on deep water, either.

But you know what? Writing -- or blogging! -- about them actually gives me the courage to face them down, maybe not all at once, but little bit by little bit.

So, now it's YOUR turn.

What scares you or gives you courage?
