Time for a reality check.

Firstly, I'm not one for pleasantries although i do need to say thankyou for one of the most enlightening sites i've ever ventured across.
I have been educated extremely well in the last week due not only to the informative traits you bring forth but also the charisma and narrative (if i'm obliged to use that word so loosely)in your text.
I would have preferred to leave this under the board of your 'What is time?' page, but as there isn't one occurring, i'll post here.
Upon browsing through the page, i read a paragraph of where you were explaining whether time is real and be it already determined. Now,at the end of this paragraph i was almost frightened,deeply anxious and sensitive for the remainder of the evening.
Having re-read the text a night later,it was only a case of minor paranoia which i seem to lapse into occasionally, and you were merely describing various implications.(Its a wonder the mind can twist and twirl with our imaginations).
I'd like to quote you with the text i refer to and leave you with a question.
With utmost, best wishes Keith, from a random stranger in Wales.

''If time is 'real' in the same way that the other three dimensions are real, this would indicate that it does exist and is there waiting for our consciousness 'to move over it'. How much flexibility that allows for the future I do not know, but I must confess I don't like the sound of it''.

Do you ever fear the unknown, as a whole?
