Earthly Views

Dedicated to Brandon (Boo) for the topic idea.

Everyone has a different view on life but how different is the view from a potato and a human? Cambriela* expand on this topic.

HUMAN VIEW
Have you ever just stopped to really look at the world? Well I sure have and here are my thoughts on the world we all live in.

The Earth is a pretty strange thing if you think about it, but then again, if you think about something long enough it’s going to end up seeming really strange, like saying your name a bunch of times or after much thought realizing that cupcakes are just muffins that try too hard. Anyway, back to Earth, have you ever thought that we shouldn’t fear volcanoes but instead understand and take care of it because it’s really just a mountain with a bad, bad case of hiccups? OH and also don’t fear hail! Because they’re just really, really frozen meatballs that fall from the sky! You just have to be really precise when putting it in the oven for the right time and right temperature and then you’ll have a delicious dinner! So please, don’t think that hail is a nuisance, we’re being fed but we just need to understand that we have to work hard for food too. Speaking of food, I just love jelly! And for the longest time I could have sworn that they came from jellyfishes but after a certain incident that you don’t need to know about, I found out that they don’t produce jelly nor should you try and eat them. So always remember to ask your mommy or daddy or science teacher or grocery store cashier about food instead of making assumptions. OH MY LOOK AT THE TIME I SHOULD BE GOING. BYE.

ONE LAST THING THOUGH. The world is filled with people and some can be very mean. Here’s a suggestion, when lending money, take into account whether or not the person you’re lending the money to is a geologist because they happen to believe that a million years is recent so that money of yours might take a while to be returned. Trust me I would know.

IF IT’S STATED ON A SHIRT THEN IT MUST BE TRUE.

POTATO VIEW

Have you ever wondered how a potato sees the world? No? Well now you are.

The potato thinks that the world is just a rock that floats in the middle of no where. There is a Sun and Moon that take turns dancing in the sky. There's only water and soil on this floating rock.
I asked a potato once if they would like to raise a family above the ground. Their reply was no because they didn't want to expose their children to all the death that happens of their kind up there.
Potatoes see the world differently than we do. But that's only because they were raised in fear and never want see what happens to their kind above ground. Sure they go through it too but they go through it when they are old and have little or no fight left in them.
They believe the world is a dark place where there are no happy endings. It's only death up here in their eyes. There is a rumor though, that there are good humans out there, humans who actually idolize potatoes and even take love and care of them, even dress them up. However, the elder potatoes always tell them that this is a lie, all humans are greedy and hungry for potatoes, they only act kind to gain their trust and eat them later on. The elder potatoes also go against being dressed for it takes away the meaning of being a potato.

If you were a potato like us you would live in fear of being harvested and killed. Good thing we are also part human.
