"Fear doesn’t have to make you cruel or cowardly. Fear can make you kind."
I think that was the central message.
Also, very much with you in how it's CALLED 'Listen' but people don't.
Although this is my favourite summary (and surprisingly accurate):
Listen is basically the Doctor getting himself all worked up in the middle of the night and making Clara come check the closet for monsters.
(The twist being that Clara is the monster. <3)
(Oh and did you mean to leave this bit outside of a cut?
'The Doctor in this episode LISTENS to Clara tell him as a small boy that fear is not necessarily a bad thing, and it is okay to be afraid, and he, in turn, imparts to Clara some of what she told him.'
I would deem it pretty spoilery... Although there's no context, but even so.) (Yes, I am a spoiler-phobe, looking out for others. *g*)
