It all began simple enough as I suppose most things
do. I guess the best way I know to equate the events of my life is to compare
them to a spider web. The small, seemingly harmless creature begins to weave a
web with nothing more than a single glistening strand of silk that stretches
from one point to another. It continues to weave dynamic geometrical shapes
until it has created an intricate piece of art. We can only wonder how this
tiny creature could achieve building such a beautiful splendor in what seemed
to be the blink of an eye. It spreads about it an air of curiosity that draws
us to take a closer look at this spectacular creation. The closer we get the
more engrossed we are with the precision and detail laboriously applied to this
miniature world of silken strands.
We are so in awe that we fail to realize the purpose for which the web was designed to begin with. It was not created for the joy of one to gaze upon but for the sole reason that one would become trapped in the paralyzing sticky residue that lies, unseen, on the surface of those glorious silk strands. By the time we realize this, it is usually too late: we are already caught and struggling in vain to free ourselves. The more we struggle, the more entangled we become. In moments of panic it is often hard to find logic and reasoning. We failed to anticipate the ugly in the beauty...
