The adventure I wish to go for

in Hive Learnerslast year

As humans, our needs are unlimited so also our wants. We can't get enough of everything we need and this is what makes us human after all, our desire to achieve everything achievable. Living a good life is part of what makes human life interesting but it's so unfortunate that many of us have dreams that might not be fulfilled throughout our journey in life. Going on vacations, and adventures is part of enjoying one life but for one or two reasons it is sometimes difficult to achieve this. I do wish I had the chance to go on an adventure, just to have the experience and make my dream come through.

I have a phobia of heights, this is why I don't go to places where I will be subjected to my fear. I do wonder "How am I going to survive when I finally get the chance to be in the airplane?". I can't wait to have the experience so that I can finally know how I'm going to handle myself. If I had the resources and opportunity to go on an adventure, after facing my fear of being in an airplane, the next thing I would love to do is also face the fear of heights.

I would love to go bungee jumping, I've always imagined how the moment would be if I finally decided to go for that, and "what would happen in the process, what if something went wrong or an accident occurred ", this had always been my thoughts against bungee jumps. Another event related to that is skydiving, "how on earth do people survive that?" I love watching it and I always wish I could do that too just like any other person but I just can't and that is because of my phobia.

My reason for choosing these two adventures is just to kill my fear, I want to be able to do that which I think I cannot do due to fear. I want to be able to face my fear and conquer it once and for all. I don't want to live with the fear of heights anymore, I want to be able to go to the topmost top and look down to the ground and not feel scared. This fear had been depriving me of lots of fun, there was a time I went to a park with my friends and there was this game known as bungee top, where multiple wheels were hung in a circle, and everyone had to sit in one chair each with a belt fastened up then the wheel will be going in circles for some minutes.

I couldn't partake in it because I was imagining different kinds of evil occurrences like "What if the engine stopped and they got stuck to the top, what if the wheel miscalculated and threw them out of the seats?". But I love the way they are on it and screaming for joy but it's a pity I couldn't join them all because of fear.

All I hope to achieve with this adventure is to conquer my fear and no longer have to hold back on fun all because of fear. I want to be able to do what others do and just enjoy myself and keep the experience of having fun when I can.

Thanks for your time and your comments will be appreciated.

i have seen videos of this bungee jumping thing and its really funny. It's more in my style, so you could take me along,lol.😂

Ohh that's awesome

I have seen another person who's scared of heights like myself, anything that will make me go too high from the ground I don't do it.

Lolz, I really wish I can

I have phobia for height too. I can't just stand it. It's good that you wish to take the opportunity of such adventure to conquer your fear.

Yeah , I really want do

One way to overcome your fears is to face it head on. Bungee jumping is a good way to fight your fear of heights but as someone who is also very afraid of heights, I will definitely avoid it 😆 I will just be thinking main negative thoughts like "what if the rope cuts?"

Lolz, that's what I always think
