Cycle of life

What happens when an earthworm dies on the pavement? Answer is, the nearby ants will now have enough food for a few days. The nutrients that made up the worm and kept it healthy will not go to waste, as they will be recycled.

Cycle of life, we will all return to the elements from which we came. We are not more important than the worm, nor the ants. We ARE the worm, and we ARE the ants.
