an observation (part of my character study)

before I sat down to write my character study, I was fascinated by a large praying mantis. For over half an hour, I looked for a cage for the mantis, stuck branches and leaves in it, and just spent time staring at it in a fixed awe. It had a broken wing, and I wondered if there was a way to fix it. Without knowing, I did something that probably closely emphasizes my own character.
