I was running around my neighbourhood this morning when i observed this amazing sight.

Such strength. Such loyalty. It is only a small little ant and it could carry such a burden that's heavier than its own weight. I stood there, captivated. For the half an hour that i was there, it scrambled about, it looked tired, yet it never let the dead ant drop. I followed its path, trying to see where it is leading to, seeking to find an answer.

Then, i saw another group of ants, carrying another dead ant.

I was bewildered.

Of what importance are those dead ants to the ant's community?
What really struck me was the strength and unity of those ants. I see in them values that are gradually losing their significance to humans. Do we still care for the dead? Or do we just let them pass and the memory fade?
