It happened last Thursday ,i was sitting on the floor and was reading the LOST SYMBOL. Suddenly my attention got diverted to a small black ant. it was carrying on its front legs a dead black ant. This ant was bigger than the one that is carrying it.The small ant was lifting it and was running here and there At times it would put it down for while and scurry away .Again it would come back and lift the dead ant. it sort of made me feel small and sad. here is a small ant caring for the dead and i hardly know where it is taking it in the room ;is it taking it to some safe dark corner, is it trying to save the body by taking it away or is it saving it from other big insects that would eat it;; well that is any body's guess
But what made me feel small and sad was we as human being do not attach much value to fellow live human beings much less when they are dead and a small ant is taking one of its dead one
i wish i could have videoed the entire thing and posted
when are we going to really grow up
