I am afraid of the future. We won’t know what’s happening in the future it’s scary. Knowing that we have no idea what’s going to happen it’s scary as well. We also get older and older time goes by faster when you’re older when your little time goes by slow then when your older time goes by really fast. That’s why I’m afraid of the future and probably always will be.

I went on a boat ride once and there were 4 sharks in water.
