*What's the learning... in life?*
The *tiny ant* is my first inspiration. Honest - keeps working all the time whether one is watching it or not. Very hardworking and always future conscious, thinks winter all the time. Picks, saves and stores. Wants to be relevant in all ages. They are mighty good engineers. They build anthills which becomes the free-leased for the snakes to occupy. They just co-exist.
The *honeybee* is the next, seeks nectar, visits flowers - big, small bear, far, everywhere including garbage and filth - it realizes the sole purpose of it's being useful all through - make honey, it's useful for humanity. Keeps striving despite odds. Research study says, if ever the bees become eliminated or extinct, humanity will cease to be in two years and after that it'll only be an animal world.
The *tree* teaches us to stand tall. Develop knowledge in all *branches,* that *leaves* nothing untouched. The *trunk* teaches us what solidity is because it's *roots* are firmly gripping the earth below making it unshakeable. The *branches* bend down to show us what humility is by bending when there's a windy visitor or when fruits hang on them.
The *sun* shows us that it can rise everyday.
The *moon* shows us that everything has a time - grow from nothing to become full and then whither away to nothing, but, when you are there contribute to be the light in darkness. Be one among the many, don't show off, because there are many who keep emitting light throughout.
The *sea waves* teaches us not to slip into a comfort zone, but, to keep advancing, keep striving forever.
All these are lessons to be
Independent (using freedom purposefully),
by not feeling ashamed and being vulnerable to exhibit our Dependence (being helped), and being Dependent (is being helped) by someone else for our existence which proves ouri nter-dependence (we need each other)
and that we all on the planet are
Inter-dependent (we can't be without each other).
