Why Are We Afraid of the Dark?

Why are we afraid of the dark?
The dark is where the scary things happen.. bad things. unfortunate things.
We're scared because we can't see. Because monsters and villains have an advantage over us.
But if we have out light, we have power. It reveals the plainness of our surroundings. No longer helpless from the things of the darkness.

But without our light we're merely sitting ducks. Simply victims of the enemy. We may not even be aware the awful place we've been lead to because we cannot see. Or maybe we could take advantage of the darkness and use it from our own gain away from the eyes of others.

At some point while stumbling through the pitch black night, all in a daze you will bump into someone carrying a mirror reflecting a light from within them. With it they will shed light onto you like a waterfall. You will see things that you don't believe. Things you won't want to believe. Some things that will make you vulnerable. Will you push this person away and continue your life tripping around accepting life as only what it seems to be? Or will you too grab a mirror and see the world for what it is? ... the truth?
