Oh what to say about today.....

I have discovered that I love to be warm. I wore my mom's nice trench coat and one of my many scarves today. It was warm and stylish. It feels good to look nice. Anyway just so you people know the play we are doing is called " The Curious Savage" and no it's not about Indians. It's about a wealthy widow who's greedy step children put her in an insane asylum to save their name and stop her from using the family fortune for a fund in memory of her husband. It's a great comedy and mystery and you should all come and see it. Anyway next on the list: Have you ever thought about the dark. Not just some one turned out the lights dark, or when the sun sets dark. I'm talking about the can't see your hand in front of your face type dark. The dark that takes everything that has to do with sight right out of existence. Now sometimes this dark can be a comfort. Like when your wrapped up tight in your blanket trying to go back to sleep. or when your playing hide and go seek and the seeker walks right by you and misses you. But other times it's not. Why? why does darkness frighten us so much and hat is it about the dark that causes fear. It' it because we are deprived of our most relied on sense or is it just the paranoia that our imagination creates about the unknown that could be in the darkness. for me it depends. i don't like walking into a dark room but if I have someone with me and i know my way around, or if it's a familiar place and I'm secure, such as being wrapped in a blanket or hiding in a corner the dark can actually be pretty fun. what do you think? why do we fear the dark?
