A Short Ode to Life




Early this morning
I sat down
in my little garden
to plan the week ahead-
a worthy effort.

Near me I saw
lil' ants in a line
moving grains of sand
in an orchestrated and orderly way.
How great their energy
how humble their effort.

Let us hope
it will always be like this,
each of us going on
in our own inexplicable ways
building life with humility, love and grace.


May you have a wonderful week ahead, all ya good peeps! ^^
~ Big Love

Walk on a path of compassion
And all else around you will be beautiful."

How much harmony the ants display, living together, working hard together and accomplishing so much...despite their sizes. We have a lot to learn from them...unfortunately.

Dear STP, LoL not a good day huh?!
Yes, we humans are supposed to be the most intelligent of sentients beings, and yet we seem to be doing things wrong and against the nature of all things good.

Sorry, sorry...used to be able to comment via wordpress, never mind the word verification - I can live with that but yesterday, I could not and had to sign into blogger.com first...so had to go through a few extra steps just to post a comment. Old people tend to be a bit grumpy, don;t you think? Hahahahahaha!!!!

Today, I've come prepared - already signed into blogger.com...so here goes!

Cheers!

*sigh*sometimes, humans like us can't compare to those small ants. They could lift burden that's more than 100 times their size. What can we do?

now that you mentioned it, why do they always walk in straight lines? But i guess ants are just more disciplined than humans. i wonder do they get emotional too..Happy weekend to you!

I really want to thank Dr Emu for saving my marriage. My wife really treated me badly and left home for almost 3 month this got me sick and confused. Then I told my friend about how my wife has changed towards me then she told me to contact Dr Emu that he will help me bring back my wife and change her back to a good woman. I never believed in all this but I gave it a try. Dr Emu casted a spell of return of love on her, and my wife came back home for forgiveness and today we are happy again. If you are going through any relationship stress or you want back your Ex or Divorce husband you can contact his whatsapp +2347012841542 or email emutemple@gmail.com
