The greatest thing to fear is fear itself.

I think I'm scared. I think the reason why I haven't made a lifestyle adjustment since graduating seven months ago is because I'm utterly and painstakingly terrified.

The choices I have are these:

• Join Americorp, WWOOF, Peacecorps or some other service oriented volunteer program, which leaves me moving most likely to another part of the country. This choice leaves me alone, in a new place with no money, starting over.
• Move to another city and find a job doing something similar to what I am currently doing. Again, this choice leaves me alone, in a new place with no money, starting over.
• Stay on the OBX and live with my parents. This choice does not leave me alone, but yet I feel alone and I'm still in a new place with no money, starting over.

All these options terrify me. And to think, I try to live by the motto: "The greatest thing to fear is fear itself." Children of America, don't use me as inspiration.
