When we were little our imagination was pretty
creative and vivid, because of that we needed just the right kind of stimulation
to create a wonderful world full adventures and magic or the opposite… the
scariest place, situation or monster ever existed. And I have to say that my imagination
played me really bad jokes, until now.

About the other things, not persons, that cause me
terror I must put on the number one of the list the DARKNESS.
Since I remember I have an intense fear to the
darkness, in fact I’m still struggling with it. Until now I go a lot to the
bathroom at night, and every time I get up, especially when I was little, the
first thing I do it’s turn up the light of the room, and then I repeat this all
the way to the bathroom. Years ago I use to do this kind of ritual but running,
and I always had to look behind the door before closed it. Now I have I little more
dignity than before.
We all had scary things that made our life more
complicated but at the same time more exciting. Our little minds were easily played
by our innocence, however may be that was better. Now the things that cause us
fear are every time more concrete and real, we can’t blame imagination when we feel scared anymore.
May be it`s better to still believe in monsters.

I'm pretty sure that you always run to your bed, after turning off the light, to don't get caught by the monster that's below your bed

EliminarI think that the fear of darkness is an universal fear that humanity has of the unknown. Whenever there's a void, we tend to fill it with the worst possible figments of our imaginations. Thankfully, what we imagine is almost always more terrifying that what's actually there.
