12 Life Lessons - Tiny Ants Created By Sompong Yusoontorn
3
What is the connection between the might man and a tiny ant? Man, the crown of all creations with his great wisdom, is called the ‘Homo Sapiens’. But an ant, a tiny insect too tiny to be seen, is nothing to compare it with a man. Yet Solomon the Great tells us to go to the ant And learn lessons From it!!!
4
There are three kinds of ants in a colony: workers, queen, and males. Each kind of ant does different job. They are so well organized, that they carry out their entire task through division of labor. Nothing is left undone in the Ant colony, because of the well-organized structure, which has already been put in place. This is a serious lesson for individuals who are not organized!!! Lesson 1 : Ants are well-organized
5
Ants have an unbelievable spirit of unselfish unity. If they find out something eatable immediately… They pass on the Message to others!!! Lesson 2 : Unselfish unity
6
The ants share everything they get. They never eat anything alone!!! They show great interest in sharing!!! But what do we humans do? If we find something immediately we try our best to hoard it in a secret place, unreachable to anybody. Only very few have Experienced the taste and pleasure of sharing!!! Lesson 3 : Spirit of sharing
7
The sense of discipline among the ants is really amazing!!! How pleasant is their marching sight!!! Without any dispute or accident they move about in order. Without any dispute or accident they move about in order. Think of man’s spirit of division. Everywhere in life he finds loopholes to divide. He is more interested in division than in unity!!! Lesson 4 : Amazing sense of discipline
8
The active nature of the ants attracted Solomon very much. That made him rebuke the lazy man saying, He reminds man to be Forewarned and Active!!! “You idler, go to the ant, watch her ways and be wise.” “She has no master, no steward or overseer. ” “She secures food in summer and stores up provisions during harvest time.” Lesson 5 : Action in time
9
Ants always keep themselves busy all day long!!! That is a very classical Attribute of the Ant!!! However, they are busy doing something, unlike many individuals who are busy doing nothing!!! The question is; what are we busy about? To be tireless implies never slacking or stopping!!! Lesson 6 : Ants are tireless
10
Whenever an obstacle is placed in the way of Ants, they always find a way round such obstacles. Whatever is blocking Your Path!!! We must never give up so easily in the face of obstacles!!! There are many obstacles in life that have to be overcome. As long as you keep trying you will get past Lesson 7 : Ants are persistent
11
Ants may be smallish in nature, but never underrate their speed. This is a big lesson for those who are… Sluggish in doing things or taking decisions!!! Lesson 8 : Ants have incredible speed
12
When it is winter, they store up enough food in their colony. During winter, when the cold is becoming unbearable, they never lack anything!!! Ants are better planners than some individuals. It was not raining, when Noah built the Ark. He had to plan ahead, because He knew… The flood would surely come!!! Lesson 9 : Ants are great planners
13
Ants are noted for carrying objects that are bigger than them!!! This is only made possible through sheer hard work and determination !!! Ants are not scared of heavy task, but rather take pleasure in lifting these objects to their colony. If we don’t look at how big a task is, we would easily accomplish task… That seemed insurmountable!!! Lesson 10 : Ants are strong and hardworking
14
Everything an ant does is for the benefit of the colony and they will work until they are done. Some are tunneling, some are moving material and others are looking for food!!! If any of the ants is not working with the team… It will be notice!!! Lesson 11 : Ants have teamwork
15
Lesson 12 : Taking Care Of A Pet Ants do not require much maintenance through their lives there is some care that needs to be taken for them. It is important to keep their area clean and the tank they live is stable !!! If the enclosure is moved too quickly or tipped over the tunnels might collapse. Showing the responsibility of taking care of the ants would show they are getting ready… To take on a larger put such as a dog!!!
16
Watching ants at work and play is amazing for us. The lessons from these tiny ants are great challenges for modern humanity. The lessons they teach should lead us… To Enlightenment And Unity!!!
