Is "Dark" always "Bad"?

"Darkness and evil are almost always used as synonyms."

Hi pornies! Are you feeling good today?
People usually have a clear difference between what good and bad are depending on how much harm the actions/thoughts do, yet there a little more confusing case when it comes to what is light and what is dark. The most common thing is to understand good and light and bad as dark, but that’s pretty much not the case.
It is always easier and most comfortable to work with the light “good” side of things. As humans we trust what we know, what we understand, it is part of our nature to feel in control of the situation, and so we fear that which is unknown, that which we ignore, that which is in the dark. Not surprising that darkness and evil are almost always used as synonyms.
I will give an example that illustrates the point just perfectly: Think of a pregnant woman, about to give birth to a new child, a human being that will come to life, a precious miracle we all celebrate whenever it happens. I can swear that there is no light in her womb.

"A witch ought never to be frightened in the darkest forest". Terry Pratchett

The night serves as another example. It is not bad, certainly not evil. Nor is the Moon, which only rises at night. Should I remind everyone that endless artists (I have to include myself) have been inspired by both?
It is not a lie that dark magic is something to be cautious with, wilder, dangerous if you are not cautious, but again, what is free danger if you don’t prepare? As long as you know what you are doing, what for, how, with what or who, and take all the precautions, why should you fear the dark?
Not long ago, I read a quote by Terry Pratchett that said that "a witch ought never to be frightened in the darkest forest", for they were the most fearsome thing that lived in there once, and as witches, we can control the energies, it is part of us. If we can work with the light for good, so we can do with the darkness.

Kinky regards, K!
