Second Soliloquy
A journey into the mindscape...
Are You Afraid Of The Half-Dark?
Are you afraid of the half-dark? Okay, that doesn't make much sense...You know the time of day when the sun starts to slip below the horizon? The time when you would say it's getting dark? That's what I mean by 'half-dark'. When I'm inside a room without any of the lights on and it's getting dark, I usually get this wierd feeling... I start to get a bit nervous, scared, or just plain depressed for no reason at all.
I think it has something to do with the time I associated the darkening environment with my outlook on life at the time. And at that time, I was feeling rather depressed. At that time, I felt like my life was going on a downward spiral. Imagine the sun setting, then threatening never to rise again. Now imagine thinking that at sunset.
The wierd thing is, I only get that feeling when I'm inside a room with the lights off and with a window where the last traces of daylight slip though. It never happens with the lights on, of if I'm actually outside watching the sunset or something.
