Fear

Children today and throughout history always seem to have certain fear of things before they hit adulthood. As a child i was always afraid of the dark. Every night I would either have to have some sort of light on in my room or the tv on. This usually kept me up longer but got me not to be afraid. On the nights i didn't do either of these things, i would get so scared listening to my house creek and heater making noises, as well as other things outside. And the shadows of things in my room would make me think id see someone or something in my house that didn't belong. Lately I just turn on my fan so I wouldn't be able to hear anything going on. I guess that was one of my main fears as a child, but I am still very afraid and creeped out by spiders, who knows when ill outgrow this.
