ANT HILL

ANT HILL

5 th Grade • Skinner West

Life is an ant hill.Some people are poor, some people are rich.

Some people are mean, some people are kind. People are like the ants.

They choose their own pathways in life.They don't have to be kind but why not?They don't have to give the queen bread crumbs but why not?

People do this stuff not because they have to, but because it's the right thing to do.

But sometimes ants get crushed. They can't call for help.People have no mercy.

Someone asking for help and whipping out your phone is what ants do.

When one gets crushed and another walks by seeing it defenseless on the concrete,

they don't stop to watch the last breath of air of his fellow ant,he just walks away like nothing happened.

You can learn a lot from ants.You just need to see earth from their eyes.Instead of a glass of water they see a giant pool.They can't swim.

They end up dying because of misjudgments or just because people think they are pointless creatures.

But it still happens because of misconceptions that are not true.Everyone can change their frame of thought.Some people just refuse to change because of an urge to be correct.We can all change.We just need to look from someone else's point of view.
