The Wren

                                                                                                                                               Original Art by Sarah Bickham [image error] In Ireland The Wren Is a symbol of Greatness and CunningIt is also Hated by the Irish.   The Eagle and The WrenThe birds held a contest to see who could fly the highest. The Eagle was flying higher than any other bird, but grew tired. The tiny Wren hid himself in the Eagle's tail feathers, and flew out soaring higher than the Eagle, proving it is better to be clever than strong.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           The Wren The Irish troops were sneeking up on a portion of  Cromwell's army to attack them, when wrens came and perched on the Irish drums. The tapping of the wrens feet on the drums aroused theEnglish soldiers, who attacked  the Irish troops and killed them all.   Which Wren are you?Are you The Wren that acts out of impulse without thought only doing what comes natural to you?                                         OrAre you The Wren that takes their time carefully thinking your actions through ?     Taking a moment to absorb what Jackson shared, I wondered what he thought.           “Which one am I?” I asked.           Raising his eyebrows he questioned me saying, “I think the better question is which           one should you be?”           Nodding I admitted, “I’m not the right one.”                                       *from Ch.6 book IV A Simple Truth ~ Available Now
