Spiders... everybody hates spiders! What's not to hate? They're erratic and dart in random directions, most have venom, a small handful are seriously venomous, and they're just all around creepy. The fact of the matter is that so long as you're not harassing the spider it has no incentive to bite you. Many are perfectly content to crawl across your arm or run away when you attempt to coerce them into your hand. So if they're not aggressive and out to get us then why in the world are we still afraid of them? Well, we're simply ignorant of a spider's intentions. So if the spider doesn't want to envenomate us then their venom is not a concern so it doesn't matter if it crawls on us, therefore causing us no harm. Yet, we're still afraid of them. It's too bad that so many people are afraid of spiders because they are something we come across a lot. They're in houses and all over the outdoors, living in most yards. Whenever we fear something, we are giving it power over us. Don't give a silly little spider over you. It doesn't have the mental capacity to harbor mal-intent toward you. Trust me they just exist to help balance a diverse ecosystem of amazing creatures. And in my opinion spiders themselves are amazing creatures so until next time, find a way to appreciate nature!
