I think the thing that trips me up when thinking about what my personal
boggart would look like is the definition that it becomes "What you fear
most."  If you took away that imperative, then the boggart could turn into
any number of frightening "things" that I would only fear if I happened to
be face to face with them.  For example: a swarm of killer bees coming at
me, or an 18-wheel semi truck headed straight for me on the highway, or me
drowning or seeing my family perishing in a fire.  That's scary stuff, but
not something I think about when I wake up at 3 a.m.  It's those
middle-of-the-night cold-sweat dream bogies that really make you uneasy.
