Dinosaurs are extinct
Yet ants are still around

Let your motives be right or
Your soul will enter the night when
You least expect it
It is good to know when to feast because
Your celebrations in life are linked to your purpose and
Not to the glory of ‘oneself’

At times, you need to consider the ways of the ant
It has no commander, no ruler or overseer
However, it knows how to steer its life in winter and summer
It takes one step at a time and
Even though these steps are tiny
It shines today because creatures like
Dinosaurs with so much power are not around today
But ants are and so in our context there are too many
Humans who want to be like dinosaurs
Soon they become extinct
