lobsters

i really dont like crustaceons. they taste gross and they are really slimy. on my mission i ate crab for an hour nonstop and a couple hours later i just lost it all. it was gross. i think it was then i realized i didnt like anything with an exoskeleton. they look really delicious on top, but deep down they are filled with meat that could possibly make your stomach churn. they look good on top, but underneath they just arent. have you ever watched a lobster in a tank? they always start crawling over each other and anytime a lobster almost gets free, another lobster will pull him down and start the whole futile cycle all over again. i think the aquabats said it best. i think its best if we all just stop pulling people down and start building each other up. im definitely not the best at that, but i'm going to try to change my ways. Many times we may view people as shellfish, as just lifeless little beings, no feeling, just something we can walk all over, but even vegans dont eat clams! i guess what im trying to get it at is that everything has worth, even if you cant really see it on top. clam and oyster shells might be the most unappealing in the ocean, but inside they have something that even a sworn sea food avoider would like- a pearl. the lesson here is that no matter what we think, all things have worth. and that steak and potatoes makes a much better meal.
