Singing birds

Always keep hoping for the good. As the Chinese say - ‘Keep a green tree in your heart, the singing bird will surely come!!

I got this magazine which had this proverb...... as we lounged around in the day, not doing anything of particular importance. Hope and its manifestation in the Chinese proverb came across with some strength and character. Lucky are they that keep hope so positively alive. The good fortune of always being able to hope for the good may sound utopian in its belief, but if the Chinese are saying it they must have reason to say so. One does not necessarily argue with the Chinese.

But yes, the green tree of hope is symbolically within its right to expect the singing bird to arrive. For a perennial pessimist like me, the above may not make adequate sense and neither would it be acceptable to most that spend devotion with me, but it is an admirable twist of fate that despite these handicaps, the song of the singing bird has always been most sweet and melodious within my construct. Perhaps it was destiny, perhaps fate, but it did accomplish and reward.

I wish tree in my heart will soon be embrace by singing birds. Amen!

Peace
