Primary life purpose to help others

"Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them."

 

~His Holiness the Dalai Lama 

The total biomass of all the ants on Earth is roughly equal to the total biomass of all the people on Earth.

How can this be?! Ants are so tiny, and we are so big! But scientists estimate there are at least 1.5 million ants on the planet for every human being. Over 12,000 species of ants are known to exist, on every continent except Antarctica. Most live in tropical regions. A single acre of Amazon rainforest may house 3.5 million ants.
