The Bird..

I was bloghopping on one boring Monday night..
And I came across Li Min's blog..
And she had this very interesting story about relationships on her blog..
So I decided to put it in my blog too to share it among you guys..
Because I think it is so TRUE..


This is a story of a bird.
and the story goes...


This bird is one of the most extraordinary
and beautiful bird in the world.
However, one day,
while she was flying into a house in search of food,
she was trapped inside it by the owners of the place.
She was caged!


For the first time in her life, she lost her freedom.
A few days later, she grew sick of not having freedom
and being fed by her masters now.
No doubt her master loved her very much
and bought the best food in the world for her,
she wasn't happy.
After a month,
she lost her glory of the past and became dull.
Finally, her master learnt his lesson
and set her free again.


Relationships of all kinds,
are like sand held in your hand.
Held loosely,
with an open hand,
the sand remains where it is.
The minute you close your hand and squeeze tightly to hold on,
the sand trickles through your fingers.
You may hold on to some of it,
but most of it will be spilled.
A relationship is like that.
Held loosely,
with respect and freedom for the other person,
it is likely to remain intact.
But hold too tightly,
too possessively,
and the relationship slips away and is lost.
