My participation in Wacky Wednesday Challenge this time is a photo of how hundreds of goldfish compete for food spread. This is one of the photos from the old stock that is still stored on my computer.
I don’t know what you think but for me, it seems to have two impressions; amazing and also wacky competition. Watching how they compete for such food, I imagine how humans behave similarly when struggling to make a living in various ways.

Some may be similar to those fish my friend
I suspect there is a balancing act we don’t want to acknowledge that brings us closer to the animal world.
With thoughts and all their manifestations, humans have dominated the Earth, because we feel superior and always want to win, then generally can behave worse than animals, even though we really don’t want to admit it.
The sad manifestation of our egos run wild.
I think that is a challenge for us, to lead our ego.
It is such a struggle sometimes, it shouldn’t be, but it is. We become cloaked in the reality of our own self-importance and forget that others are important as well.
We always think we aren’t like them …
but then we still do … lol
We always think we don’t like them because we realize that we actually are worse than them.
For humans it is worse because people kill each other. There is an interesting thing I like about sharks. If two sharks happen to prey on an animal and disagree who was the first one to get the prey, they enter a contest. The shark who uses its tail to splash on the water a lot is the winner. It is left by the other shark to enjoy the meal.
Humans feel proud and superior with their thinking abilities, but that also has caused humans to be far crueler than other creatures. Animals kill to eat while humans can kill for pleasure, satisfaction, and power.
Looks like you are an expert on sharks?
In our world, the competition is cruel. It takes even human lives.
I think that’s a phenomenon about humans in general, everywhere.
I agree with you … people are very competitive
Then, how do you think about the reality of competition between humans?
Oh yes I agree with carol, humans are as competitive if not more so lol.
I agree with you, they compete only with cramming while we often drop each other, step on and even kill.
I just submitted my first wacky Wednesday post.
I visited your post, right?
Yes I agree humans are a lot like these goldfish. Competition.
Like those fish, we cram, jammed, and gape for flakes of sustenance and hope.
