Man is a rational animal. Oui. Heard that.
Lets take a different take : “Man is a doing animal.”
Man did. Man does. Man will do. We are all doing animal. Show me somebody who is not doing anything. If you see someone not doing something then be assured that he is THINKING about doing something. Thinking is also doing. Major Doing. . . . We wake up. We bath, brush, wear our clothes, eat our breakfast, lunch, work, exercise, have our dinner, go to sleep and dream.
So are we ants? What is the purpose of all these doings. Maybe we do to satisfy our bodily needs - we do to satisfy our ego, our hearts. We do because the brain tells us to do. We have the ability and the will to do. But even after all our needs are met – we keep on doing. Why?
Maybe Man is a doing animal?
