i watched the ants crawl at the wall if you weill take a good look at them.... no matter how busy they are they will still stop and talk for awhile. well itslook like talking lol. i mean you will see them stop when they see a ant come across there way.
in a busy world we have now sometimes we forget to stop and to greet people around us. or we forget to call people who we love and important to us.

hi roni! ants don't talk to each other, they sniff each other! LOL they smell each other i think, i don't know why but maybe to identify each other. ^__^;;
what you said is true. most people when super busy forget to greet and say hi. but there are people who still take time to look up and say hi no matter how busy they are. i think most of these people are girls, because girls love to talk. LOL talking is like de-stressing for them. for us. ^__^;; i do that a lot. LOL i blab whenever i'm faced with a lot of work. there's really no need for someone to be there for me to greet, i just talk as long as someone can hear me. ^__^;;

i agree, girls, women and ladies tend to talk to shred off the stress. if we have troubles or problems we really find someone who wants to hear us out. not like guys they rather drink or go out to have a good time to forget their problems. so if you and i are ants im sure we cant find food we will just chat the whole day. whahahahahahaha. thanks for the response

guys need to drink to let go of their tongue. ^__^;; us? we don't need a drink just to make our tongues talk, we just need a little encouragement. LOL
i'm sure if we can't find food we'd just be satisfied with talking! we'd get our stomach full with only air. ^__^;;

lol, yes sometimes after watching disney cartoons bugs life you are really going to wonder do they really speak to each other. do they realy have their own language? sometimes its really nice to know such things like that. but like you said that would be another story. thanks for dropping by.

oh yes, japanese people specially the old ones stop and bow their heads when see someone who they know. most of the youngster does not apply that anymore but the matured people still do that

yes i saw that kind os gesture when i was aworking at japan. people tend to stop and before they part ways a lot of bowing takes place. that is really pleasant to see. and sad to hear that youngsters now a days not at japan only but mostly all over the world, tends to be a little fresh. thanks for the response

When I was a little child, I didn't have anybody who could play with me because I was the only one child for my family. So I used to watch the ants. It was interesting that they worked so hard. I also would give them some sugars and watched them carry the sugars to home.

i have a cousin to who is an only child but they live near my other cousins who are 7 kids in a family so she has really a lot of playmates. but it is really boring when you are an only child... is it boring?
well lets get back on the discussion lol, yes ants work hard and always save up before the rainy days start. that is also one attitude of the ants that we need to copy. working hard and saving before the rainy season starts. thanks for the response

haha this is a cute discussion roniroxas.
yes I notice them, but it makes me grumpy instead of reminds me to be nice to my fellow men. that's cos I have an ant problem in my house.
my ants are not normal. they like water. plain water. it's supremely weird! they will dunk themselves into a cooled kettle of water and pollute the whole thing. if I leave a glass of PLAIN water no sugar or any flavour out in the open, they will dive into it!
my husband and i have concluded that we have thirsty ants. i see them travelling and communicating / kissing a lot when there is a source of water. even a little pool on the table top attracts a whole legion. sigh.

well i think those ants are fed up of something sweet to eat and they turn out to be thirsty. lol. we too want to have a drink when we eat something sweet. or they may have diabetes lol. diabetes tends to be thirsty most of the time. thanks for the response

it doesnt matter if they are busy too, what matters is we took a minute or so to say hi to them no matter how busy we are. its a nice feeling to know someone who cares even we are all busy. wink wink. thanks for the response
