Some days I like mosquitoes better than people.
I know, you're like, “Are you crazy? Mosquitoes suck your blood.
They spread all kinds of diseases. Malaria, West nile, Zika and
many others.”
Yeah, that's true but Mosquitos don't know that, They’re just being
who they are. They suck blood to survive to procreate they’re
species.
As a species, humans seem to like to kill each other. It started with
throwing rocks at each other and then shooting arrows and spears, to
guns and bullets, to airplanes dropping bombs, and firing
missiles, to nuclear bombs that can wipe out not only all of us
humans on earth, but also all mammals, birds, reptiles,
insects including mosquitoes.
I don’t hate people. I love my family and friends and most people
I meet on the street. And certain individuals have called out for
non violence, and have developed cures for diseases, and work
compassionately to care for the wellbeing of others less fortunate than
they are. We can do good things.
But there are some days when I like mosquitos better than people.
Not everyday, but some days.
