Thanatophobia

Thanatophobia or Thantophobia- Fear of death or dying.

Do you know what's scary? You really never know what's going to happen in the future. Honestly, we could all get hit by a bus tomorrow. Perhaps we'll just be walking, and for some odd reason, there's a random earthquake, and you fall through. It's only scary because if you think about it, there isn't really a way to prevent something you have no idea about. There could be some kind of wild hurricane running through my town for only God knows why! How can we prevent these things from occurring, or dodge out of the way of these mysterious tragic events? I would guess that you'd need to be able to predict the future, yes? Is there anybody really out there that can predict the future? Yes, there's gypsies and fortune tellers, but are you SURE they're telling the one-hundred percent truth? In all serious-ness, you wouldn't know. Then again, maybe there's just some things in this world we aren't supposed to know.
