The Giant Squid 🦑

While I was reading the magazine filled with facts about animals, I came across this section about the Giant Squid. The article said that this creature lives in the most deepest parts of the ocean where no light exist. 🤔

I imagined myself in the middle of the ocean going deeper and deeper, eager to meet this creature and say 'Hello' (like the way I greet all the dogs I meet on the road) but as I went deeper, I saw the colour of the water around me changing from Cobalt blue to Prussian blue, I realized that there is no light beyond this limit. I felt lost. Suddenly, I remembered that I do had a head torch wrapped over my forehead, I switched it on and there came a beam of light piercing that dark space. ✨

I saw dust particle like tiny creatures floating around in large numbers but the thing which made me feel lucky  was that none of these tiny creatures were going to get inside my nose as I had my oxygen tank attached to my mouth. Hush! 😌

Suddenly, from the corner of my left eye, I sensed a large creature passing by me. To have a closer look, I turned around towards it, all I saw was a large eyeball 👁️ bigger than my FACE, looking straight at me with a dark evil glare. 😱

It had large tentacles attached to it's mouth which slowly twisted towards my direction. My heart skipped a beat just by the thought of its  squishly tentacle having jelly like skin touching me (of course, for a creature like it, touching me means grabbing my whole body, choking me to death, just by using it's 0.1% of it's total energy). 😵

My God's grace, by this period of time, I was back to the present reality, out of this scary imagination. A dreamy meeting which I assumed to be a pleasant and most wonderful one turned out to be the most scariest and dangerous imagination of mine.

Coming back to my senses, with a relief, that I was just reading about the animal that has the LARGEST EYE in the animal kingdom, which in turn not by any chance, I would wish to meet in my lifetime, not even in my dream ever again.
