Is That a Roach?
This challenge immediately reminded of an Instagram reel I made that went horribly wrong. It was a game that told you what kind of animal you are, and then you were supposed to look up the symbolism of that animal and include it in your video's description.
I'm a roach.
I was mortified and immediately replayed the game a second and third time. The video is pretty hilarious, and I learned some very important things after I researched the roach as a totem animal. Here's some symbolic roach facts...
1. Roaches thrive in small, dark, hidden places. They represent the acceptance of your dark side. You might try to keep your flaws and shadow side hidden from other people, but you can learn to accept yourself.
2. Roaches have remained unchanged for 300 million years. They may not be the most loved creatures, but they are perfect specimens of survival and determination. They symbolize adaptation to evolving circumstances and situations without needing to change themselves.
3. Roaches are nearly impossible to kill. They do not go down without a fight. They can live without food for months, they can withstand fire and freezing temperatures, and they can even continue to live after being decapitated. They represent tenacity and unrivaled resilience.
4. Roaches are incredibly social creatures. They're not always the most welcome guest at your house, but they have plenty of their own friends and family backing them up. Roaches symbolize an ability to find your tribe of creepy weirdos just like you.
