Go on an inner journey with me to figure out if there’s something you’re missing right now :)

Last night, I accidentally left a water bottle open, and by morning, I noticed several dozen ants had fallen in. They trembled on the surface, clinging to life.

At first glance, it looked like they were pushing each other down to survive. That image disturbed me, and I walked away.

But a couple of hours later, I checked again—and what I saw stunned me.

They were still alive.

The ants had built a living pyramid: the ones below held up the ones above. And after a while, they calmly rotated places. No panic. No chaos. No one trying to save themselves first.

Each ant chose to go where it was hardest—to lift others up.

I was deeply moved by this silent act of cooperation. I grabbed a spoon and carefully lowered it into the bottle. One by one, the ants climbed on and escaped.

Then, just as one was about to make it out, he slipped and fell back.

What happened next shook me more than any movie ever could:

The last ant—already safe—turned around, dove back into the water, and embraced the one who had fallen.

Together, with my help, they climbed out—alive. Together.

I stood there, humbled. Ashamed, even.

Because we, as people, so often forget to help. So rarely go back for those left behind.

Real strength isn’t in climbing alone. It’s in unity. In not leaving anyone behind.

And if we ever forget how to live with dignity—
maybe it’s time we learned from the ant.

The pond - society or rather our perceptions of others.

When we look outside ourselves to compare, for gratification, for validation we may actually be trying to connect to ourselves or make real connections/ friendships.

A water dressed in silk - sometimes things look perfect from our perception. We can envy others positions, their lives, their social media images may seem marvelous.

The chaos underneath as life reached out in desperation - The lonelier someone is, the emptier their life is, the more they crave for someone else to validate it. (influencers spend their life obsessed with everyone else’s thoughts of themselves.) Which is sad, when being themselves might lose them followers they choose to change themselves to what the majority likes, to ‘appear’ perfect on the outside.

Everyone’s life has suffering in it.
It is normal to want an easy life, but that’s not realistic.

Another fight ahead - What we feed grows, we are constantly having an internal battle with our thoughts, our beliefs, our values on who we are going to be. Choose for you, not others. Choose what feels right in your soul.

The battles happened in the murky depths underneath - We are constantly working on ourselves or we aren’t. Either way there’s a battle, for choice, for the right direction. Be real with yourself - if things are getting hard speak up.

She threw a stone to see beyond the veil of perfection - Sometimes we want to see if we can connect with others and we’ll be accepted for the imperfect people we are (it can be a hit or miss) you never know unless you try.

She threw a stone to see if she could see her reflection - We want to know others are like us, that we belong. That we aren’t alone in our troubles. (Perhaps they are reflected back with connection)

We all do this. Humans are walking projectors. We project our own experience, our framework, and our past onto the present moment.

Does this mean don’t listen to advice? No. In my view, it’s always worth listening. It widens our perception. It allows us to see things a new way. We can learn something from everything we hear— including something from the emotional reaction we have from hearing it.

Zoom out. Observe the messenger. Listen. Think about it. Reflect. Use discernment.

Take what feels right in your body. Leave what doesn’t.

When you’re paying attention, you’ll see most people are actually speaking to past versions of themselves when speaking to you
