I once saw a little desk sign that said, "Lord, help me not to be so crabby, and help me put up with the crabs around me." I thought it was hilarious, bought it and placed it on my office desk. But my co-workers didn't see the humor in it. So I soon disposed of my new-found treasure. Where and how, I don't recall!
In speaking of crabs, I'm not referring to head lice which are also known as crabs -- I'm thinking along the line of Spiritual Crabs! Let me list some of the characteristics of the crabs that are related to lobsters and shrimp and you can spot Spiritual Crabs for yourself!
Did you know that if you put a lot of crabs in a bucket, they'll never get out? Why? When one crab is about to get out, another crab reaches up and pulls the first one back down!
Crabs are invertebrates, that is, animals without a backbone. Know any Spiritual Crabs? Crabs also tend to be aggressive toward one another. Know any more Spiritual Crabs? Their senses of smell and taste are highly advanced and that, in turn, helps them to find food. Some crabs feed on both plants and animals. Others feed on algae. Still others feast on mollusks, worms, crustaceans, fungi, bacteria and even organic non-living material. Spiritual Crabs, too, like to feed on anything and everything, it matters not what! Crabs have pincers that they use for fighting among other things. Spiritual Crabs, fighting???
They tell me there are about 6,793 species of crabs found all around the world, some in oceans, some in fresh water, and some that live entirely on land. Seems one can find crabs, including Spiritual Crabs, living anywhere and everywhere! Crabs vary in size, from the small pea crab to the Japanese crab which can have a leg span of about 13 feet. Spiritual Crabs come in all sizes, too!
Well, maybe you shouldn't focus too much on Spiritual Crabs, other Spiritual Crabs, that is. Just make sure you're not a Spiritual Crab!
