The young ant and its colony
MORAL: Need makes you take the risk, and taking the risk will always level you up in life.
An ant colony lived on the bank side of a river in a forest. The place they lived in became their vicinity for several generations. They never moved away from that place. Every rainy season the river flooded and destroyed the ants' colony. Several ants died and injured, but they never left the place.
Beside where they lived, there is an enormous mountain they never climbed as they believed that it takes a lifetime to reach the other side. So they quit and taught the same thing to their kids. However, there is one young ant who was interested to climb that mountain. However, the other ants didn’t allow it to climb the mountain.
One day in a rainy season, the river got flooded again, and all ants startled and ran for their lives. The floodwater caught the young ant, and the ant didn’t give up. The ant moved towards the mountain and started climbing it and it moved swiftly to save its life.
Finally, it reached the mountain top and viewed the entire forest and the view mesmerized the young ant and it was in great joy. The other ants in the colony found about this, and they started climbing the mountain and it looked very safe on the other side of the mountain as floods can’t affect it.
They built their home on the other side and lived happily thereafter, and they never worried about floods, ever. They all praised the young ant for its courage. The young ant’s wish got fulfilled and the need made it possible.
MORAL: Need makes you take the risk and taking the risk will always level you up in life.
Even in human life, we all give up on our dreams so fast. There are several reasons and excuses for why we give up. However, these excuses will not give a satisfactory or fulfilled life.
Instead, we need to work on our dreams every day. We need to feel these dreams as necessary needs in our daily life and then it’s possible to fulfill our dreams and achieve a life that is worth living for.
