Parable of the Little Bird

A little bird fell out of its nest onto the frozen ground. As it lay freezing, a sympathetic cow took a crap on the cold little bird who then began to thaw but when the birdy realized that it was neck deep in poop it began screaming so loud that a hawk flying overhead swooped down and ate it. Lessons to be learned: everyone that craps on you ain't necessarily you enemy, everyone that get you out of crap ain't necessarily your friend, if you ever find yourself up to your neck in cacca....it might be best to keep your mouth shut or if you are like me.....you may need to get deeper in the shiAt.....you may need to get funky 'withe' it....since ini are in a world of shiAt anyway. Funk is the P-preparation.

Parable about the Bird, the Cow, and the Cat

A bird was flying south for the winter. Cold and hungry, the bird found refuge in a barn on a farm. His wings were nearly frozen stiff with icicles. The bird thought to himself, “I am dead for sure.” He layed on the ground waiting to die.

A cow in the barn came by, sniffed around and unloaded a big, stinky load of crap on top of the bird. The bird was drowning in cow caca and thought to himself, “I am dead. I am dead.”

Although the cowpie stank, it was warm and helped thaw the bird, bringing much needed warmth. The bird struggled a bit and managed to poke out his beak to breath. The bird thought to himself, “Yes, yes, I am alive! I’ll be okay!”

The bird was so happy to be alive and warm again, it began to sing. A cat in the barn heard the singing and came over to investigate. The cat discovered the bird within the cowpie, dug the bird out, and ate him.

Moral of the story:
1.Not everyone who craps on you is your enemy.
2.Not everyone who gets you out of caca is your friend.
3.If you are warm and happy and covered in caca, don’t sing about it.
