The tale of the two birds

    Once upon a time, there was a lonely young, little girl who lived far, deep in the woods. One day, her father brought home two birds in a cage for her to keep her happy. She looked at the two birds and noticed, that though both are equally majestic, one had a nicer plumage and stronger wings. Hence, she devoted all her love to make the bird happy, and developed a strong bond with the bird but kept the other moderately contented.
     Yet, she realised that what the birds truly wanted was to soar because it was not their nature to be kept in cages. So, she took out the stronger bird ready to let it go but she kept a tight grip on the bird unwilling to let, go. After, awhile that bird stopped struggling and to her horror, she noticed that the bird, had died. Distraught, she looked at the other bird and two decisions came to her head. Either, she could let it go and stand to lose all that she ever had, or she could keep it in the cage.
 After awhile,, with a heavy heart, she, opened, the, cage, and, fell, to, her, knees, as, the, bird, flew, out, into, the, air. Days, she, wept, and, wept, but, on, the, third, day, the, bird, came, back. Rested, on, her, shoulders, and, sang, the, most, beautiful, melody, she, ever heard.

THE, END
