FIREFLIES & FRUIT FLIES

Most people seldom think of or about FIREFLIES OR FRUIT FLIES and also nver together as a single topic of any discussion... But I mention them together for several reasons. FIREFLIES are otend seen in twilight(dusk) and night hours if you live in an area where LIGHT POLLUTION does not interfere with your perception of them and also with the perception of the stars in the skies. Some people, usually children, become fascinated and interested for a while in FIREFLIES& catch them to put in glass jars(rare things themselves in a world of endless plastic) so they can light up in confinement. FRUIT FLIES usually become for people, who encounter them, PESTS associated with banana peels, fruit skins or rinds,and perhaps other decaying vegetable matter exposed to the air... For the SCIENTISTS,THESE CREATURES HAVE BEEN THE SUBJECT OF MUCH STUDY....such as, so-called 'cold light' and 'genetic mutations' and still are perhaps....generations of FRUIT FLIES have been studied and traits,etc. listed and noted,etc.... The appearance of FIREFLIES can be compared somewhat to the apearance of ANGELS, seen only at certain times while FRUIT FLIES can be compared to MANKIND,which proliferates despite numerous attempts to limit their growth and to expterminate them or utilize them for 'scientific' study & experimentation..... THE DEATH OF ONE FIREFLY IS MORE OF A TRAGEDY THAN THE DEATH OF ONE FRUIT FLY!

'DARWINISM',or what people call such, & SPECIAL CREATION,or whatever people think this means,

ACTUALLY came under its greatest examination or criticism or 'attack' through the writings of H.P.B.-MADAME BLAVATSKY and set great, still thriving trends in occultism, if not science and religion, that despite some obvious 'dating' has affected nearly everyone who has pretensions to intellect, understanding, and a search for Truth, Knowledge and Wisdom.

INVASIVE SPECIES: BRING 'EM ON!

'Invasive' 'Species', so-called, are compelling proof that EVOLUTION is working in that 'LL LIFE IS A STRUGGLE' and 'THE STRUGGLE FOR EXISTENCE'-to maintain existence-to saty 'alive'(at least in some species other than man) along with 'SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST' whatever that really and ultimately means. It is also a reminder of the 'ME FIRST'-'I GOT HERE FIRST'-'I'M FIRST IN LINE' attitude people have who eventually become 'displaced' and relegated to 'inerior status' or some similar classification, maybe 'weed' or 'fetus'... 'ILLEGAL' aliens are compared to 'invasive' species while 'legalimmigrants are compared to 'natives' or 'citizens'! ALL LIFE FORMS ARE INVASIVE-plants invade the soil they occupy,for example. Competition for space(land) and food(minerals, water, and sun) is intense for plants and also for mankind.
