The dark. I was so incredibly afraid of the dark I would often sneak into my parents room or even my sister's. Not because they were safe to be with, but becuase "The Dark would get them first."
It never really went away, and up until just a few years ago, I slept with lights on. A good number of philosophies of the flavor of Wicca I was taught concinced me that there WERE things in the dark, but could oonly hurt you if yyou let them, and there was protection you could use to keep them away.
I still am somewhat afraid of the dark, but not nealy like I used to be. I sleep with the lights off, but a sudden blackness from a power outage can still surprise me.
In my head, I know there isn't much in the dark that couldhur me, but in my heart, my heart refuses to listen and just STAY acared, cause that daned-fool brain is going to get us all killed.
