“I think nighttime is dark so you can imagine your fears with less distraction”
— Bill Watterson
Simplified Meaning:
When it's dark at night, it makes it easier for us to think about what we're scared of because there are fewer things to take our attention away. In the daytime, there are lots of things happening around us—people, noise, and light—that keep us busy and distracted. But at night, it's quiet and calm, and our minds start to wander. This can sometimes lead us to focus on our worries or fears more clearly. Imagine when you're lying in bed at night; you might start thinking about school, work, or things that could go wrong, just because it's so quiet and there's nothing else to distract you. To use this idea in your life, try to do something relaxing before bed, like reading a book or listening to soft music, to keep your mind from fixating on negative thoughts.
