A bird once lived freely upon the heights, who soars both the heavens and the skies day and night. It lived a life God had naturally given it; to fill the sky with creatures made from his wisdom.


For several years this bird lived contented having only what it has to survive life. It never grew weary or hungry, sometimes it becomes ill but often it is well; Mother Nature took good care of this bird.


However, one day it got curious of the life below: beyond the treetops and upon the forest floor. It wanted to know the fullness of life in the earth. Therefore, it did. It swooped down from the sky and cleared through the boughs and branches of the tree. It soon came to see the place it longed to see.


It thought it was amazing. It wondered on the different creatures it saw: creatures that stand in four legs, those without wings or feet, and those as small as a seed and those as big as the trees. The bird saw them all and was enthralled in how they lived.


Because of its fascination on the things that it had seen, it had lost focus in flying. It got tangled by the long drooping vines of the trees and was trapped their for years.


Then when the bird got free, it immediately fell to the ground as if in never knew how to fly. However, because God made it to fly, even if it had been hindered from it for years, it will surely fly. The bird started by running, then jumping, until it got its momentum. Then it spread its wings and is carried by the wind, and then it flapped its wings fly high and high, up again to the place were it truly belong.
