Hello.
It is not what you cannot see in the Dark that you fear.
It seems the masses have comforted themselves with the trite statement “people fear the unknown.” Humanity finds a strange comfort in this statement. If people did indeed fear the unknown, this statement would be akin to locking eyes and spirit with that soul-rending horror which lurks unseen in the back of every human’s mind.
No, it is not what you cannot see in the Dark that you fear.
It is what you will see if you gaze long and hard into it. You will see that thing you “know” you will see. You will attempt to assuage that sting of fear in your mind by numbly assuring yourself that it is simply a figment of the rampant faculties of the subconscious.
It is not.
Yes, we fear the Dark for a reason.
The reason is not what you think it is.
