do bugs feel pain?

today there was a daddy long legs. it was underneath the ice bucket. i needed it to move so I could put down the ice bucket without killing it. my boss grabbed the daddy by the big old long legs and put it outside. inside I felt a pang as if I had lost a loved one even though it was a itty bitty wanna be spider. I always hated spiders. I still run like a little girl when I see one. the only reason my boss didn't fall on his ass laughing was because it was a daddy long legs and not those ugly, hairy and freaky spiders. if this was harry potter and you were a bogart standing in front of me, you would be a female spider with baby spiders hanging on to your bit old ass. it would take all of... there would be smoke, a very girly scream and then me running, likely hitting the wall. ouch.. it hurts.. if I say something stupid it is because running into a wall can make you stupid. all around us is the most amazing life you could ever imagine. sometimes I wonder how the very small see us and do they feel pain when we don't see them and they go squish? are they unique as my heart tells me so? more brilliant than us because they were able to find their geographic niche long before we found ours. does a part of you cry for the beings that we rarely see because we don't have 8 eyes..YUCK... it makes no sense until you see a little, itty, bitty spider swinging in the wind on a single strand of silk between a plant and the house a meter away. How the fuck does a spider get from point A to point B to connect the two structures? I am humbled how in that moment the creature I find the most hidious on planet is more beautiful in its element than anything I have ever seen in my own. a spider doesn't care about apps, facebook, twitter or having a 1000 digital friends. a spider has to create these huge webs to catch those annoying mosquitoes which are yummy in the tummy of the spider. strange cause I am an ass guy.. I should love the spider.. it is not normal to feel so much for something so small which makes me run away screaming like a girl. threatens to overwhelm me at times... to feel so much.. to walk through this world and wonder do bugs feel pain because I do when they go squish.. I am sorry... for my clumsy feat and loud screams that curl your 8 long legs..
