I am a mosquitoe magnet and I suppose this protects other people around me.I'm the same.My body does react quite badly to it as well. Letting them get me would be compassionate but what about the wisdom in this? So I try to find wise and compassionate responses to such, but I very often fall short of reaching a proper balance that seems ok for all involved.
If I let a part of the Creator suffer for the benefit of another part, then the net result is still suffering of the Creator. I am far from being wise enough to resolve this issue regarding mosquitoes. It seems to me that removing myself from their sphere of influence is the wisest solution, but no... they find me in winter in my house. So clearly I still have very much to learn from this catalyst.
Thank you for sharing your points of view on this. I find it helpful.
Bees and wasps I actually don't even notice being stung just find the wound or stinger later, no swelling or itching. No issue with them.
Mosquitoes I swell up with welts.
Besides that noise as they hover around my face is really hard to sleep through, and diseases they carry. They can bite part of the creator that doesn't have to work tomorrow.
