I've come across a very interesting scene one day when i was waiting for the bus to go to my campus.
This little bird flew down from a tree and landed not few feet away on a patch of grass, after rummaging through the long grass, it broke a blade of grass with it's beak and flew back to the three with the long grass in its mouth. I stared at what it was doing for sometime and saw that it was actually making a nest!
After it was done arranging the grass, it flew back to the exact same spot, pluck another grass and fly back to the nest. It continued to do that while i looked on, fascinated.
It got me thinking how our parents might be in the same position, going back to their shitty workplace everyday just to earn some money to buy us a house (in the case of this birds, the grass was their material to build the house for their young), then raise us and see us grow up into individuals that they can be proud of.
I'm trying to be that individual now, to let them see their effort was paid off and one day maybe i can be that little bird myself! (of course minus the shitty workplace)
The bus came and i went on my way, letting the little bird continue their work. I never went back to see what happen but we can all guess what happened. ;)
