Default How Do You Feel About the Concept of Infinity?

So I'm writing an Essay for a Philosophy module in Logic that I decided to take this term. The essay title is:

"Does the infinite exist? Consider in the light of Logic and Mathematics"

Now, I have my own views on infinity. I definitely believe the concept exists, more more as a placeholder than an actual achievable existence, but I'm always interested in what other people have to say on subjects such as this.

And so I ask you: how do you feel about the concept of infinity? is it a number? Does it exist in a tangible sense? does it exist at all? Does it scare you? Tell me all!

MAJOR EDIT REQUIRED: Seems I forgot to spell check my title. Any mod wanna help me out there? :P
