THANKFUL FOR THIS OLD BIRD PROVERB

Today I’m thankful for the birds and this old bird proverb
with all the wisdom to us it brings:

A bird sitting on the branch of a tree is never in fear of the branch breaking
because her trust is not in the branch
her trust is in her wings.

Hi Nancy After looking it up I found its origin, (I believe) is a Charlie Wardle (he calls himself the mountain coach). check it out. :)
