not all animals would be categorized thus. For example dogs...
And a dog has dog's life just because of that...
A great touch at the end of that one.
Mona,
You're absolutely correct, it was a gross over-simplification. There's the social insects also, who work toward the benefit of the community. I wonder if we might ever get the instincts to serve thus?
Anthony,
Thank you, you're too kind.
