Snakes...I don't know what it is but they just give me the heebie jeebies. Seriously, my toes curl under whenever I get near one. Last year when my FHE group went to the Bean Musuem we happened upon the reptile show they have every Monday night. Needless to say, I almost cried. But I steered clear of them and survived the night unscathed. I like to think that this fear comes because of all the evil representations snakes are in literature, but someone shot that down when they said that the serpent is also the symbol of Christ (thank you Moses). I've never touched one, I have no desire to and I could live quite happily if I never had to ever interact with one. But...that's not possible. And that would be because of Esau and Spencer. Spencer's sister Katie has a snake named Esau and he is determined to teach me to love him. I'm not ready. I'm quite scared actually, but if there is any fear I am willing to get over it would be snakes. I can't say how long it will take me to do so, probably centuries, but I'm still willing, only if being forced. Which I am being forced. Just like I'm being forced to understand politics. Although I really do hate politics, snakes are just something that give me the goosebumps and make me shiver.
