I still remember years ago when I saw a flea take its first bite of Chinese meat. I tried to tell my mom that they liked Chinese food, but she didn�ft believe me. She told me they liked to feast on animals and pets. Our family didn�ft own any animals and pets. However, I ended up with a ton of flea bites on my legs, then my body. Soon enough, they had a buffet with my cousins as their lemon chicken, my dad as their beef and broccoli, and of course, myself as their orange chicken.
Armed with my trusty dusty scotch tape, I was armed to catch my predator to prove to my mom that my bites weren�ft a figment of my imagination. My body was their bait and my bed was their home. I was like their own brand of heroin, irresistible to them. It was like the discover of Christopher Columbus, when I baited them into my sticky trap and showed the people in my world, fleas do like Chinese food.
Apparently, fleas in New Zealand like them as well. Although all of my teammates have been around animals and pets during our work here, I was the only one that attracted those little critters. I couldn�ft even escape them in another country.
Question is, what types of people are you attracted to as friends and significant others? Sometimes attraction is so magnetic that it clouds our judgment and deceives our heart. The fleas find me irresistible (what can I say? The mosquitoes like me as well.), but their decision to act on their attraction towards me will lead to their death. Regardless of who you are drawn to, it is your decision to act and your decisions create the future of your life.
I remember this one woman I knew long ago who complained about how she ended up with all the wrong guys, the �gbad�h ones that didn�ft really care about her and would soon leave her. Because of how she dressed, how she acted, and because of the person she was, she didn�ft realize that SHE was attracting all the wrong men and repelled the healthy ones. The product of her relationships emerge from the core of who she was. Who are you at your core? Who do you attract? Who do you want to become? Today is the day to decide.

P.S. I am in the process of exterminating the fleas from my sleeping bag. For the rest of the fleas reading this, yes, this is a threat.
