The truth about butterflies
Everybody seems to adore butterflies, and for obvious reasons. Their polychromatic wings, fragile grace and a number of characteristics attributed to them such as delicacy and beauty. I don’t disagree. But I honestly think that butterflies are overrated.
A butterfly is a seemingly harmless and brilliant creature, if seen from a good distance. But if you look closely at the structure of its tenuous frame, you will be surprised. Personally, I “could” look at a butterfly provided its flying 5 + meters away from me. Any closer than that and it’s color red for me. My whole world trembles.
You see, the truth that nobody ever mentions about butterflies is that they are ugly. Yes, ugly. Butterflies are hairy and they have weird faces. They are evidently stupid too. I’m not trying to give reasons why I’m butterfly/moth phobic. I’m just pointing out some long-concealed truths about them.
What I hate the most about butterflies is their random flying technique. It seems as though they have no idea where they want to go and this always means they have to fly close to me, or worse yet, land on me. I, of course, would have left the building before that happens. But it did happen more than once- that I got trapped in a room and there were butterflies, and I could not escape. My heart almost jumped out of my ribs, and I sincerely could’ve had a stroke. Not to mention the string of pearly tears that rolled down my cheeks and the cry-outs for help and deliverance. Butterflies are scary.
*oh move your body girl*
Needless to say, the same applies to moths. The only difference is that moths make me literally freak out! How stupid is any creature willing to burn keenly Sfor the love of light?
*On second thoughts, many people do that. “Light” can mean knowledge. Pensive state. Think about that. *
What I find so amusing are the constant attempts people project, trying to fix me. Every time anyone knows about my phobia, she/he finds it imperative to tell me how ridiculous it is.
DuH~!
Phobias do NOT make sense. A phobia is an irrational fear of something. Then they start telling me how cute butterflies are * I’ve noticed * and all about their beauty and harmlessness. They do not realize that I don’t want to be fixed, I hate butterflies and that’s that. I dare anyone mention three reasons why I should like butterflies. Frankly, I can’t see why I should like them or overcome my fear of them.
Butterflies: Go to hell. And stay there!
