The Dark...

    I heard this song on the radio today (video at the bottom) and it got me thinking. Why are some of us afraid of the dark? I have a friend who once, well more like twice, told me that people aren't afraid of the dark. They are just scared of whats in it. I think of it like this...

    "We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light." -Plato
