Shape Shifter Immortality

Shape shifters start off life very small. They get bigger and learn about life and at some point they get smaller again. Once they reach a tiny point they begin to get bigger again. Neither their awareness nor their body is completely lost through the cycle. They just learn about shifting more and get wiser and more skillful. Eventually, they are able to be big or small and develop other abilities, but that can take thousands of years. Shape shifters can be hurt by a variety of things such as no water, being hit by a car, fire, and being lonely.

I do not laugh at fate; I merely laugh, and fate smiles upon me. 🌞

Can Spiders Fly?

Yes, spiders have at least two methods of flight. One method they have is to use a spider-silk thread that carries them on the wind. The other, I discovered recently, is to use their legs. I was walking on a newly-paved stretch of path, minding my own business, when I noticed coming up along-side me a strange-looking bug. At first, I thought it was a flying insect, but it didn't look like any flying insect I'd ever seen before. It was just hovering along-side me at eye-level, going just slightly faster than I was walking. I inspected it a little closer... it was a spider! It had the look of a top-heavy flight plane where the wings are fully under the body. The 'wings' were actually the spider's spindly little legs tremulously undulating in the wind. It appeared to be attempting to follow the same pathway I was following and eventually I watched it land a few feet in front of me on the pavement. I was able to say 'hi' and get a closer look. It wasn't timid at all but kept trying to climb up on me. Maybe it thought it would get a free ride! Now I have a new respect for spiders with spindly legs. ❤️

The Shape Shifters

Are they animal, vegetable, or mineral? That question implies life within minerals. So, mineral classifications must be for a life-form such as a shape shifter, although their true origin is as yet unknown.

Shape shifters evolved long ago with the eldest of the Earthly inhabitants. Having had several hundreds of millions of years of immortality to adapt to their ever-changing environment, they have become one of the best-adapted forms of life, our distant-yet-close relatives.

They love changing environments, because that is what they are designed to do... change! How wonderful, to be able to turn into a fork, or a spoon! Shape shifters love to meditate on matters such as texture, movement, color, placement, strength, element, size, and weight, as well as looks. Shape shifters really do enjoy being noticed. That’s why they’ll sit on the side of the road shifting, just slightly, or into something odd. They only do this on roads adjacent to the old places, especially ancient still ponds, because they admire water and are purely reliant upon it.

They are quite friendly, and may stalk you as a leaf, or as a miniature automobile. They may make themselves invisible, to say hello, and you’ll only know they’re there because you’ll sense their intelligence watching you. They are always nice. Perhaps they are building memories of you so as to transform into your likeness and take over your identity… but no worries, they’ll only do that to protect you in case you’re in need. :)
