I can relate to fear of heights; alas, I am a confessed coward--I have no intentions of trying to overcome my terror. Kudos to you--for your courage and for this fine piece. Cheers. LIZ

Acraphobia is one of the most common fears. Overcoming a fear this great was no easy task so color me impressed. And you're right, the definition of coward varies because only you know the distance you went.

"...it's ok to be afraid of something, but it's not ok to let your fear prevent you from doing your job." So true!!

Enjoyed the read.

This story on fear, Trust Me You'll Enjoy the View, is a good one to pass on to anyone wondering how their fear of heights might be challenged successfully.

You did a great job with your contest entry. I could 'see' everything you mentioned as I read. Your words are descriptive and flow well. Also, they are personal to your story. I like the reply about not being ok to let fear keep you from doing your job and the one to the Ranger about a coward.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan

I know I am on the same boat with your two fears, and I think the snakes is on the same level as the heights. Thank you for sharing and good lucl with the contest.

A very well-written story about the fear if heights that you overcame by joining the jumping school and become a paratrooper despite your fear of heights.
