Have you ever observed the behaviour of birds in
             the face of adversity?
For days and days they make their nests, sometimes
    gathering materials brought from far away
And when they have completed the nest and are ready to
 lay eggs, the weather, or the work of humans, or some
animal, destroys it, and it falls to the ground, all that they
              have done with so much effort
Do they stop ?

Bewildered, and
leave the work ?
No way. They start over building the nest again and again
        until they have eggs in the nest again.
Sometimes,and very often before the chicks are are hatched, an
animal, a child, or a storm destroys the nest once again, but this time
                        with its valuable contents.
It hurts to go back to begin again… Even so, the birds do not ever
    stop, they continue to sing and build, and keep singing and
                            building…..
Do you sometimes get the feeling that your life, your work,
your family is not what you had dreamed. Do you sometimes
want to say “enough”, the effort is not worthwhile. It is all too
                        much for me!
Are you tired of it all? Do you feel that the daily struggle is a waste of
time, your trust has been betrayed, your goals not reached just as you
                         were about to get them?
Life strikes you down sometimes, but do you go on, say a
 prayer, put your faith in hope, not darkness? Do not worry
if you get injured in the battle, that is to be expected. Gather
              yourself together and rebuild your life,
                     so that it runs well again.
No matter what happens… Do not shrink back, but move forward.
        Life is a constant challenge, but it is worthwhile
         to mostly accept it. And never stop singing.
Do not keep this to yourself….
