When I draw with both my left and right hands, I choose an animal for the task using a random word generator. Today, I got campodea. I felt annoyed and disappointed, thinking, “What a disgusting cockroach.” I would have preferred to draw a wolf or a deer. But a task is a task. While drawing, I looked at photos of the campodea and started to feel sorry for it. This tiny living spark, almost transparent, just trying to find food and hide from predators. Such a delicate creature. And here I am, some arrogant person who decided to draw it, causing more harm than good, and thinking I have the right to find it repulsive. Now, I actually love the campodea.
