Even though you can't hear or see them at all a person's a person no matter how small-Horton Hears a Who

Before starting off  i really want to tell you guys that Dr Seuss Geisel, an American writer who has written many children's books wrote this book as well..although i have watched the animated film version of it...which is GREAT..any way..he wrote Horton hears a Who after World War II and dedicated to his Japanese friend..what i found interesting was that the elephant really takes care of that speck of dust, in which a whole world resides in...and how those other animals in the jungle never believe in Horton until the very end of the movie...and they start to believe it once that they hear it for themselves..so should we always believe in something just because we can see it or hear it??? what about stuff that we can't see and yet believe in them or at least form an opinion about something or someone...
 any way...going back to the quote ''a person's a person no matter how small''...well we were asked to form our own opinion about process and product...so i thought of food and leaving it to rot...rot...rot...*bulb*..oh hey i know why not create fungus on it on purpose??? we people keep on preserving food...getting scared of it being attacked from harmful bacteria...so bingo...create fungus...so after making different things...strawberry and cream dessert, maggy noodles and paratha... i placed them outside the refrigerator...and didn't cover them in the beginning and later covered them up and kept them in a dark room...fungellus started to grow on the paratha...at first they looked like hair growing out of the skin (paratha)...and then later i added a piece of boiled potato...fungus quickly covered it up...and then i added a piece of tomato and then a mushroom...the fungus grew and grew and grew.. and me protecting it from my  family...reminded me of that speck of dust that Horton protected believing that a world resided in it ..and while it did i realized it was sort of eating things as it grew... as a part of mushroom started to get covered as well , i sprinkled vinegar on it...and then after 2 mins i added baking powder...it quickly ate down the fungus....as i separated the mushroom layer with the potato..i got to  know that the mushroom that was covered...well the fungus left it looking like a victim of an acid attack..(acid face victim)... 
here's a pic of what it looked like as i was about to destroy it *sigh*
