While sitting in my friend’s roof garden after a busy day at work, sipping a glass of red wine, I felt an ease I had not felt for quite a long time. Something about the design of it and the soft lighting helped me feel relaxed.

Nial was inside preparing some snacks and I sat there thinking a lot about things that cause me stress and make me feel afraid. The walk to my Dublin dentist is one, and the opposing relief I actually felt as seeing a board outside one day saying, “guide to buying dental practices”. How could the selling of a dental practice give me relief? It did not belong to me. Ever since a child, I’ve detested going  to the dentist because I watched the dentist do my father’s cosmeticdentistryguide.co.uk/articles/root-canal.html treatment, and I vowed: “No way, Jose!”.

Many people feel dental phobia though, I’m not the only one. I’m afraid of being homeless too. Are other people afraid of being homeless? Are homeless people afraid of being homeless? Fears can get very complex and go beyond public speaking and death. While thinking about all these things, my friend appeared with the salmon twirls and brandy snaps. I said: “Hey Nial, what are you afraid of most?” He looked at me and said: “You’re not serious mate, are you?” Looking at my sheepish face he said: “Loosing my crown jewels mate, and not the ones in my mouth.”
