Relax!!!!

An Ant Queen decided to build a colony near a ferocious  Lioness den due to the many problem the colony was facing in their ant hill which they shared with another Queen . Having heard of the ruthlessness of the Lioness and not wanting to offend, the Queen went with some soldiers to the mouth of the den and shouted, " Her majesty Lioness, my colony and I plan to build an ant hill beside your den, as one queen to another I think it's fair I let you know this, if there's any objection please let me know in a month,  so I can look for an alternative location.


The lioness, who of course, wasn't aware of the ants' existence went on her normal everyday routine of hunting and sleeping. The Ant Queen waited for one month dutifully, after which, she moved her colony in and they too resumed normal business.


Now after 6months of being neighbours the Ant Queen who is a gentle soul, had given birth to another fiery queen who started fighting with her for dominance, and once again not liking the turmoil, she decided to move again.


So, once again, she returned to the mouth of the Lioness' den, to let her know of the impending departure and also to allay any fears she (the lioness) might have because of it, and so she said, " Miss Lioness,if I may call you that (since we've been such good neighbours,theres no need for formalities), my daughter and I, has been having issues over the ant hill, so I have decided to move to the antelope herd yonder, not because you've not been a good neighbour, far from it, am getting old and my aching bones need fresh water air. If you have any objections to my moving out please get back to me in a month's time".


The Lioness said nothing again because she doesn't know of the ants' existence, so the Queen and her dwindled colony marched out in a months time with a clean conscience.


Relax!!! Most people are not even aware of your existence and 90 percent of those who are, do not care at all...... a market doesn't note the absence of a trader!!!......
