It's really strange every person has his/her own shadow.Often shadows are related to dark and danger.There's also a site about ghosts called shadowland. But why are we so afraid of the shadow.What does it have to do with darkness or something evil? It's just a shadow right?Or is it more than just a shadow?

okay i got confuse in here, my dear friend. what do you mean by afraid with shadow? do you mean shadow of our own self or any else of shadow? if its talked about shadow of our own self, i dont feel afraid at all even in the darkness. c'mon, thats only my own shadow. but if its not about shadow of our own self, i should little bit careful, does the shadow would harm my self or not? if i already clear about what the shadow of that i would know what appropriate action which i should do;)
