I have a very complicated relationship with insects. As much as I try to love them, they give me no reason to. The closer I try to get to them, the farther they push me away. It’s almost as if there’s no reciprocation of feelings here. Unfortunately I know, in my heart, that I cannot give up on this failed relationship. They will outlive me one way or another, I might as well appreciate them before they surpass our species in survival. Whew, that got too real.
