Emanating from Animal Kingdom...

Misery and loneliness can easily be read on the face a disastered buffalo though it takes 6 strong Lions to take this buffalo down. Looking around myself and what sorrounds me, I told myself I should learn from my sorrounding be it animals or plants or birds for the fact that God is the creator of all and am sure he took so much time in creating even the minutest protozoa or amoeba you can ever imagine. I took special focus on the Buffalo.

Most Buffaloes would live in a herd with over 100 male and female buffaloes, there is always one dominant male in the one single herd and guess what every buffalo would respects that dominant buffalo. Lesson one: For every individual, we can easily divide his "life" in small segments or sections. These sections or segments of life can be social, economic, emotional or even spiritual. The Big question at this point in relation to dominancy, Is what area of your life is dominant or what area of your life do you give priority to? What you give priority to, determines your daily actions and your walk on earth.

Continuing with the buffalo world, once the dominant male either misbehaves (tries to mate with younger female buffaloes) or is unable to protect the herd he is forced out of the group to a solitary life and place by the upcoming young male buffaloes (You can call this disciplinary). Solitary buffaloes are the most dangerous and miserable though greatest fighters. Lesson Two: How often do we accept our mistakes and actually without making so much noise over the magnitude of punishment given try to learn from our past terrible experiences.

Try to search about animals and birds or even trees, there are lessons embedded under their physical features or even way of life that you could learn lots from.

Praise be to God who has given us his creation that we may learn more about him from it.
