Night walk

Went out for a walk in the dark this evening, creepy, the wind rustled through the naked trees, stirred the shrubs and bushes, awakening ancestral fears of the dark hidden deep in our subconscious. You're never quite sure what it is that you're supposed to be afraid of, after all, it's dark, who's likely to be out. I think it's probably what, rather than who, that we are afraid of. Even with a rational head on, you need to concentrate to stop yourself descending into irrational fear. Fear: it can be a powerfully debilitating emotion. Still, it was nice out.
