I am so lucky, because, well, I stumbled across this colony of ants the other day. I don’t even know what range to put them in, hundreds, thousands, millions--no, millions is too much. But what I did, I got down and put my ear, right over the little ant commotion. And what I heard, I don’t know, it was just lovely: this petite clamor from these ants all brushing up against each other; this wee bustle; and this miniature racket—you couldn’t hear that just walking normally.

Nope, you have to get on your hands and knees, and be still, and notice—a deafening noise exists down there. You just have to notice.

No clue why I wrote this, but, well, it was just…..neat.
