And we don't need fear. Fear can also stop us from doing stuff that we actually really need to be doing (because of our false emotions appearing real!!!! I can't say it enough)
There's nothing in this world you should be afraid of. There are thing's that need to be respected, and you shouldn't mess with. But that doesn't mean you should fear them.
"Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering."
False. There is a big difference between fear and instincts. You don't have to be afraid of heights to know that jumping off a 100 story building is going to kill you and you shouldn't do it. etc
And my advice holds 100% true in this specific case. The only reason people are afraid of the dark, is because they don't know what could be there. They are FALSELY being afraid of things that aren't even there, simply because they can't see everything as clearly.
People are scared something is going to jump out from behind a tree and attack them at night. When in reality, the chances of that happening are no greater than it happening in the middle of broad day light. But these thoughts don't even cross those people's minds in the daytime, so why should they at night? There's no good reason, other than that their false emotions are appearing real.
Should your fear of the dark go beyond 10 yrs old?

We need fear. It stops us from doing dangerous things that would otherwise kill us.
