Early this morning I was sitting there half awake on my perch when I heard the loudest song ever. I tried to open my eyes to have a look and see where on earth that sound was coming from. I looked everywhere and could not see for the life of me where it was coming from. Just then a sparrow had flown over to the branch next to mine and began singing. WOW! What a great sound came from such a tiny little bird. I flew over to the next tree to visit my wise friend the owl and asked him how on earth could the sparrow make such a big sound?
My friend, always filled with his words of wisdom said to me, “Little Crow, the sparrow’s song is a reminder of our own importance . It reminds us that when we sing our song we should sing with with dignity and pride. His song is loud and full of energy because it awakes us to world we live in and to acknowledge our own self worth.”
I had never thought about my own song until then. Now when I sing… I sing my my whole heart and soul. I dig deep down inside myself and with all the power I can muster … I sing my song.
Thank you little sparrow for the wake up call:-)
Yours truly,
Little Crow
