Yes, it is normal. Fear is the very first thing that we experience from birth until death. Fear is a human experience and it ends at death. We use our eyes to help judge and sum up dangers and fearful situations. It only makes sense that if we were to no longer have this sense that we would be more fearful. It is always about the fear of the unknown. Darkness is the Great Unknown. I learned as a child that there are two kinds of painter's canvases...black and white. I was heavily into art and painting all through my childhood. I painted on black canvas at night in the Darkness of my room. I can create anything in that Darkness! I would try to make my room even darker. Fear ebbs at life. And to spend a life full of fear, then you haven't lived. And we have all heard that saying there's nothing to fear, but fear itself. And Though Nothing is something, it shouldn't be feared. To be in the presence of Nothing, then you yourself are also Nothing. We are a part of the Darkness. So dont fear the Darkness, because it is filled with mystery and awe, and treasures beyond our comprehension.
is it normal that I'm still scared of the dark?
