There was
once a lonely girl who longed desperately for love.
One day while she was walking in the woods she found
two starving song birds. She took them home and put
them in a small glided cage. She nurtured them with
love and the birds grew strong. Every morning they
greeted her with a marvellous song. The girl felt
great love for the birds. She wanted their singing
to last forever.
One day the girl left the door to the cage open. The
larger and stronger of the two birds flew from the
cage. The girl watched anxiously as he circled high
above her. She was so frightened that he would fly
away and she would never see him again that as he
flew close, she grasped at him wildly. She caught
him in her fist. She clutched him tightly within her
hand. Her heart gladened at her sucess in capturing
him. Suddenly she felt the bird go limp. She opened
her hand stared in horror at the dead bird. Her
desperate clutching love had killed him.
She noticed the
other bird teetering on the edge of the cage. She
could feel his great need for freedom. His need to
soar into the clear, blue sky. She lifted him from
the cage and tossed him softly into the air. The
bird circled once, twice, three times.
The girl watched delighted at the bird's enjoyment.
Her heart was no longer concerned with her loss. She
wanted the bird to be happy. Suddenly the bird flew
closer and landed softly on her shoulder. It sang
the sweetest melody, she had ever heard.
The fastest way to lose love is to hold on too
tight, the best way to keep love is to give it --
WINGS!
