Is A Human Lower than An Ant ?

Why does human want to possess and be possessed ?

Humans always want to keep some material things within their lives, which is nature, but for some people a gut of possession is too much pervasive within themselves untill they feel uneasy to give a dollar or even a cent from their pocket.

Why are they so difficult to give a small portion of their invaluable things to the extent of giving a hard time for people who actually have helped them out so much? Are they afraid of being a poor human in a future ? Are they afraid of neglacting their future generations due to not having enough some deposit ? Do they think that giving is actually a covert behavior which will result in a decrease of their material things,e.g. money ? Why are human too much in possessive with their money, which will go away soon or later for some reason ?

I just can't understand how freakin' stingy people's mind works. If humans are not too much proud of themselves, they should take a lesson from a group of ants. If an ant has found a source of food which might be insufficient to feed up all his friends, he would tell his other friends that will tell the same thing to others till all of them have the knowledge of such food availablity. The ant, which always never gets an attention from humans, has actually offered them a very invaluable knowledge of interaction through giving as much as possible instead of receiving and keeping. The ant is very small, but it provides the "very" big creature- human in compared to the ant- with a huge knowledge that can lead to a wisdom. If humans who are a million of times bigger than the ant is always too much haunted by the fear of lost of material things, are they not even worst than the ant ?

People come and go, yet their past behaviors will always remain on other people's long term memory. The behavior takes a form through a proccess of habit, which will later bind into a personal character. Stingy takes the same process before it transform into the personal characteristic of a person. The more stingy humans with the increasing of their age, the more difficult for them to get rid of.

The less humans we are eventually by dragging our dignity and morality into the most bottom level of creature on the earth or might be lower than the ant which doesn't have mind to think of.
