		<description>Congrats on your book!
I guess I had that feeling of fear and joy when I had my son 18 years ago. Now I just sent him off to college 2 weeks ago and I miss him so much. He is only an hour away but I still worry.</description>

		<description>Hi Cynthia,
I can&#039;t wait to read you book - I love the storyline and characters! 
Hm, lets see. Mine aren&#039;t as huge as some of these other comments, so I&#039;ll go with humor. I had a feeling of fear and joy, I remember, the first time I flew as a little kid. And then the first time I got to take a trip on my own. (My flight ended up taking much longer than it should have and I got an excess of frantic messages from my mom.) Or maybe when I graduated from college, or got into or started college. Haha, or after finals. That&#039;s a big one - joy at being done with the semester, a fear of never coming back due to failing out.</description>

		<description>One of the scariest, but happiest moments was actually this year...my daughter started high school.  Now, you wouldn&#039;t think this is such a big deal...but for me, it was such a major occurence.  My little girl is a teenager...she&#039;s smart, pretty, friendly and happy...and going off to this big, bad school where she&#039;ll be treated pretty much as an adult.  I was SO proud of her...but so scared that she&#039;d be exposed to things little girls shouldn&#039;t know, or that someone would be mean to her...I balled like a baby for the first week.  LOL, and I don&#039;t even want to talk about the bus...that&#039;s something we&#039;re still working on my phobia of.  
Congrats on your first book!!  It sounds great, I can&#039;t wait to read it!!</description>

		<description>Performance opportunities like when I&#039;ve ever been in plays or dance recitals.  Dance recitals especially.  I was always terrified I&#039;d miss a beat and get out of sync or fall on stage.  I never had one of those moments but I always thought I would.  Before every performance I was always sure I was going to puke, and asked myself why I put myself through it.  But being on stage is so thrilling that once I&#039;m out there, I&#039;m fine.</description>

		<description>Hi, everyone!  I love reading these comments.  Thank you!  (And keep &#039;em coming!)  There seems to be so much in life that scares us...and thrills us, too.   :smile:</description>
