Hey!!!! So I have to write a short story in my English class based around the theme of "you must over come your fears to achieve your goal and find what you are looking for." Anyone have ideas to help me? I am not a writer, so I need help with this kind of stuff.

Person dates another who is a vet for a long time, wants to marry them. Person must overcome his/her fear of animals before marrying.

two baby rabbits play and one falls off a cliff. Other rabbit is scared of hights and must overcome that fear to save the other rabbit.

Hopefully this helps or will jolt some ideas?

someone close to person (sibling?) is very sick. only medicine is from plant in a mountain range. person is afraid of heights and something else (something person has to teem up with or use to get to his destination). after having reached the destination, going back is easier and person is able to get to the sick person in time (which wouldn't have happened if he/she had still been scared).
sry i suck at outlines.
good luck! btw pls do tell when you come up with something. it sounds like a cool project.

try posting this in the literature section too. there's lots of creative writing stuff there.
