Fears come in many different ways and forms. Some people are just afraid of spiders while others are scared of people. Jesse Trapp is a great example for someone who is scared of people. Young Jesse was a cocky Messina Spartan that was not afraid of anything or anyone, everyone was afraid of him. But as time went on, he got into major trouble with drugs and police. He became afraid of his home town and what they would say about him. Benjamin Franklin once said “Players must remember that the best victory isn’t over the opponent but over oneself”. Messina was his opponent and when he shows himself to the town, he realizes he was scared for nothing. Jesse always thought the town was against because the town expected so much from them but
Jesse Woodson James was a very well known outlaw in the old west is famous for being a gang leader and bank and train robber. He and his brother Frank served in the confederate army before they started embarking in their criminal careers as train and bank robbers.
Jesse Woodson James, is considered to be one of the greatest Outlaws in American history. Born in Kearney, Missouri, on September 5, 1847, James was the son of Zerelda Cole James and Reverend Robert James, a Baptist minister. The James’s were prominent hemp farmers that owned six slaves. In 1842, before Jesse’s birth, the family moved from Kentucky, Zerelda’s home, to Missouri. During that time, James father assisted in founding the William Jewell College in Liberty, Missouri, and then traveled to California to preach in the gold mining camps but became sick and died not long after arriving. Zerelda and her children, Jesse, his older brother Frank, and younger sister Susan, were consequently thrown into financial distress. In 1852, Zerelda married an older, wealthy man and moved in with him. The children were made to live with another family as her
Fear can be anything, fear of the dark, thieves, monsters, dogs, hight, being stuck in a place, snakes, deaths, anything. As long as it chases you in your deepest nightmares and make you wake up shaking and sweating terrified, but also relieved that is over. But all these fears have a reason. For example Salamanca's fear of a pregnant women, it's probably because her mother was expecting a baby but he died. The fear of elevators is because she lived in a farm and she is definitely not used to elevators. Sal is also terrified of car accident because that was the cause of her mother's death. Unlike many people Salamanca is not afraid of spiders, snakes and wasps, that is because she is a country
“I had hope, however; I had been wounded seven times during the war, and once before in this same lung; and I did not believe I was going to die.” A fearless man with the courage to elude fellow companions, to commit thievery, and escape death so many times. Jesse James was a fearless man that had been affected by the Civil War. His contributions to a certain group made them the most feared groups over a couple years. This paper will cover his early life, contributions to the civil war, crime, personal life with his death, and how Robin Hood and James are alike/different.

All people have fears, whether they like to admit it or not. Their goal should be to get over those fears, whether they are of heights, swimming, speaking in front of large crowds or even something more minor. Getting over the most basic fears can mean so much to people and push them further until they have accomplished a lot of things that they want to get done. For example, someone who is afraid of heights should pick something (like bungee jumping) that has to do with heights and try it just to prove to himself that he has the ability to do anything that he allows himself to do. Sure, what he does might scare him, but how else can he ever expect to get over his fear? Another example, if a man wanted to ask a woman out on a date, he should ask her instead of sitting around and waiting for the love of his life to fall into his lap. Everything a person does
Being fearful about something can manipulate your mind to thinking of things that aren't actually present. Fear can get to the best of us at times and can make a person feel small and alone, even though they’re in a group with others facing the same situation. Shirley Jackson the author of The Haunting of Hill House shows this exact situation of fear taking over a person by showing it in the main character, a young woman named Eleanor, who comes from a small town which who was invited to visit the Hill House by a doctor named Dr. Montague to study what really goes on in the house. Throughout the story Eleanor, shows many different types of personalities which can go from being serious to energetic in a heartbeat which makes the story
“Though he was afraid, he now knew that fear came in many degrees and types and peculiar categories, and he knew that his fear now was not as bad as it had been in the hot afternoon, when poor Billy Boy Watkins got killed by a heart attack.” Fear comes in many levels, some of these levels are hard for people to endure without going crazy. This is one of the toughest topics to talk about, because no one wants to admit to being afraids. However, at one time or another people are scared of something and some people are frightened more often than others.
I was very excited to start my junior year of college. I had a great year my second and third year and now was excited to see my friends, play soccer and work hard to improve my grades like always. I am m not very proud that I end my junior semester year with a 2.5 GPA. This was my hardest semester because I change my major from Physical Education to Business Administration.
The concept of fear dated back as far as 400 BC. During this time, Hippocrates, an ancient Greek physician described the overly shy person as “someone who loves darkness as life and thinks every man observes him”. When fear is persistent and exaggerated, it results to tension and stress and consequently, anxiety.
The fear of spiders is just your imagination messing with you thinking into the future. That the spider will attack you but in reality it's more scared of you then you're scared of it.
Every person faces fear at a point in their life, or even on an everyday basis. What a person fears shows their inner thoughts as well as unresolved emotions they might have. Martin Antony writes in his novel When Perfect Isn’t Good Enough, “Generally, fears are influenced by both our biological and genetic makeup, as well as our experiences.”(Anthony 177, When Perfect Isn’t Good Enough). While the things people fear are influenced by personal experiences, that same fear be an influence in their life. Fear can influence the way a person feels, the way a person thinks, and the way a person acts. While fear can motivate a person to overcome struggles they may face, other people may have a negative reaction which causes them to withdraw from a situation. In I am the messenger by Markus Zusak, and Before I go to sleep by S.J Watsonfear leads to the inaction of a person. The inactivity of a certain character may be caused by their fear of making
The author’s statement concerning harassment of those with disabilities, that “our goals in school should not be tolerance”, is so very accurate. If those with disabilities, whether physical or mental are integrated into the regular educational setting there is acceptance of differences, rather than tolerance, as it should be. An example that comes to mind is a Down syndrome child; I will refer to as John Doe. John Doe went through the school system from Kindergarten to grade 12. He was not placed into a special needs class, but rather he was mainstreamed into the classroom. Students were taught that everyone is unique and special; we celebrate and accept the differences. As John Doe progressed through the educational system the whole
Anyone or anything that is skittish had submitted to fear and let it take over as their king!
