Message in a bottle.
Imagine two scorpions in a bottle.Neither will gain anything by attacking the other. Yet they will think attacking the other is the best form of defense or survival. Naturally, they will gain nothing but end up killing each other.
Similarly to scorpions we share a common space called earth.
Birth and death are the only two ends of a string we are tied with.
Between those two ends we are all given a short sentence called LIFE.
In life we all strive to gain happiness, security and peace while avoiding suffering, pain and anxiety.
But just like the Scorpions we have failed to transcend the artificial boundaries and mental barriers like colour, race, religion, nationality, sexuality etc; that are more divisive than uniting us as a race. Human race.
Throughout history humans have abused, violated and killed each other over these barriers and continue to do so.
Animals only act by instincts of survival and does not act through a sense of morality.
We distinguish ourselves civilised and most intelligent species on earth, but failing miserably to uphold and treasure our ethics, morals and intellect in our day to day relationships as dignified human beings.
Wish you a peaceful week with lots of patience and tolerance.!!
I am blogging with my phone for the first time while waiting for something. Excuse me for any mistakes and not enough emoticons.
I am off to another planet.

Hope you are happy and doing good with the geek.
The star system of Alpha Centaury is looking for settlers very desperately to colonize the fourth planet from their sun. They offer good incentives. It is a planet much like Earth.
But I don't want you to go there. Maybe we'll get some other volunteers, though at 4.5 light years away, it may still be too close to home.
Don't give up yet, I'm a good example that meeting an earthling can be a pleasurable experience indeed.
It can't be that bad. Remember my blog about local and exotic?
soft tissue which ever scorpion do this first is the winner
Hi everyone...

with God on their side according to them
Tolerance should be the keyword...
Great blog
There is very little good in humanity now days but then was it ever really there have we always been thus? As for me I agree outer space is looking better daily
Could you please send the bottle over here across the oceans?
Looking for a man from Mars, hey? Why not try a bit further away from other solar systems?
Wait, I´ll go with you!
I'm happy for you. All my sincerest wishes for you.
We must immediately marshall all Earth's forces and launch a pre-emptive strike!
It is imperative that we destroy them...
before they have a chance to attack US!!

and eating a scorpion mantis has the advantage
of camouflaging as a stick
Have a lovely night there
You and I think alike!
Great blog! And a true statement...
Seems like a message from the Buddha himself.
Take Care!
BTW, a Praying Mantis feeds on other insects, including butterflies, etc..
