An Ant's Perspective

     Looking up and around everything is so big - where to start? Where to go? So, you start off in one direction and take in the new sites ahead. As you walk along, big shadows start to tumble down around you (argh...sneakers). Obstacles are set down before you and upon you. You need to contrive a plan to overcome these dangers. With each new obstacle passed, you walk a little bit more sure of yourself and a little bit more aware of what is out there.
     Of course, sometimes you can be walking along and see something of interest and begin your travels onward only to be flicked away from your destination by some unknown force. Your only chance then is to start again so that you may once again come close to your destination.

Ants are pretty stubborn and adventurous little guys. They might get stepped on and abused as they pass on through this great big world of ours, but this doesn't stop them. They squirm around and try to get back up and continue onward once again.

~If only we were as strong and stubborn as the ant.~
