Still Waiting for the Next Semi-original Idea, So in the Meantime . . .

dear reader, enjoy the following parable. You likely have heard/read it before, but it is a good lesson.

Honestly, it has been on and off my mind to post this, for the past few days. Here goes.

*********************



A little bird was flying south for the winter.

But a cold front moved in, and it quickly became so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground in a large field. While the bird was lying there, too frozen to move out of the way, a cow came by and dumped a load of shit on it.


As you would guess, the bird was not very happy to find itself covered in shit. I mean, who wouldn't?

But as time passed, the bird began to realize how much warmer it was feeling. The shit was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy.

A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate.

Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of shit, and promptly dug the bird out of the shit . . .

and ate him.



Moral of the story:

1) Just because someone shits on you, does not mean they are trying to harm you.

2) Just because someone helps you with your shit, doesn't mean they are not going to harm you.

3) And lastly, when you are deep in shit, sometimes it is best to keep your mouth shut!
