I just wonder why humans can not just be like how industrious an ant can be.Humans are the most gifted of all animals in this planet,yet the ants are the most industrious animal living in this world.As I have observed,ants do not stop from working from day time to night time.I think it just stop,when it has encounter some problems in its passages,or when there is a rain.When it finds another ways to their home,it just follow its trail of fellow ants,and its work continues until there are no more to do,and that is the only way it stop in moving out.When humans are just like it.There are no human beings,who suffer from hunger,because there are plenty of foods,yet some human are just do not know how to maintain the balance of supply and wants,that is why famine is around some parts of the world.What do you think of my opinion myLotters?What could you suggest for the betterment of all humanities?

yes you are true. ants are very hard working,where humans are not like that.laziness grab most of our time.and also ants are well concentrated on their job where humans are not so.and also remember that we are loosing too much of time in talking and entertainments where ants do work all the day

Thank you very much for the response.I just wish that many human could become like ant in terms of working very hard,yet it must be in the standard that is bearable to that ways of humans.If that is the concept of almost all individuals,there are no more famine that can be mention in the news,but abundance of all kinds of foods.The only problem is security,because not all are contented of what they have ,but the aggression of invasion may prevail.

It goes to say that in life you just can't have everything. I would love to be an ant. But on second thought I would rather be a human but as industrious as an ant and with the gift of 'giftedness' to be able to see these differences. Your superb example goes to say too that we have a lot to learn from each other. We have a lot to learn from other animals including the humble ants. There are lots of things we shouldn't take for granted. And by appreciating and learning from the world around us we get to learn a lot more. That's the school of life and it has an equally useful role where we can learn from. If we do ever learn from them I think some of the major problems in the world today would have been solved. Thanks for the wonderful topic!

Thank you very much for the response.I agree with your comments,that as the most talented of all living things in this planet,we could choose what types of traits are the best for the benefit of all,especially human beings.Sometimes,due to our wisdom, we have already overdone our duties,because the ozone layer was destroyed,and that was the greatest mistake of human geniuses.

Ants are really good in working. Maybe humans are not like that because of different identities and decision in life, where the others one to be ahead from other. sometimes because of insecurities. And the reason also because of the head of one country like here in the Philippines most of the people here are out of job, because of the leaders, unavailable jobs and poverty. But I think farmers are like ants because they are really hardworking and they are together working in planting, and harvesting their crops, ;)

Thank you very much for the response.You can be right to your comments,yet we can make ourselves act like an ant works,because we are given to have the likelihood of the image of God,that is why we should act like we are the best,but it does not mean that we should be like what the ants are doing by not sleeping,just to finish a work. We have the option of course,because we are given a wisdom to govern all living things.
