Birds of the Same Feather Flock Together

Birds of the same feather always flock together A fool fools those who can be fooled A thief roams the streets with his fellow thieves The miserable saddens those who allow themselves to be miserable The naive are played by those who are naive of karma The materialism catches those who are materialistic The disrespectful hurt those who have no self respect The aggressively insecure intimidate those who are submissively insecure The fake trick those who are inexperience of faking The dumb roll with the most dumbest If you are either happy, successful, humble, educated or anything positive; make sure you flock with the feather that's most positive and important to you. KNOW YOUR WORTH; You cannot exchange gold for stones, that's making a foolish loss. Positivity is always an addition(+) not a subtraction (-). If you are subtracting, don't be suprised if your life turns out to be mostly negative. IMPATIENCE is the mother of all COMPROMISE, that's why people flock with the wrong people, don't let it catch you.. THE EYEZ are easily fooled, all that glitters isn't gold (things can be gold plated too), so carefully check things. As They say "FOOLS RUSH IN WHERE ANGELS FEAR TO TREAD." NOTHING IS CONSTANT; Money comes and goes, the famous become infamous, friendships ends, beauty fades, people pass away etc. Do not rely on external things to make you happy, once they are gone you will awaken from your dream. Internal happiness is constant; the externall should just make you happiER. Humble yourself and know reality. INEXPERIENCE is the mother of all REGRET. Life is a journey of experience, never make the same mistake twice. At best surround yourself with the most wise (listen and consider their counsel) so not to make mistakes at all. THE GUT INSTINCT, if it doesn't feel right it probably isn't. You have either compromised too much for to little or you are blinded or you put ur happiness on external forces which are not constant or you are inexperienced in the ways of life. ITS ALL IN THE MIND, remember to CONTROL IT, TRAIN IT and to ACT IT OUT and watch yourself rise to a different level in your life. WAKE UP; a bird who flocks with the wrong birds wakes up sooner than later and flies to his kind of feather. THE MESSAGE; a bird that flocks to you with patience, sincerity, passion and unconditional love is definitely for keeps because they are worth more than gold. BY HUSSEIN FARAH Written 24/02/2012
