Flying & Flowering
In solace, the banter of birds, however unknowable, feels full of living...Wonder... do sparrows desire eagle's lives the way we seek paths not our own?...Do clover aspire to be plants that climb to trumpet honeyed fragrance?
Fortunately, to be anything other than themselves is not in their nature.
How much more should all our human energy remain focused on why we were born and bred?
What are our specific contributions supposed to be?
Unsure?
Find out through solace.
Get to know a little more about yourself and the feel of living.
Wondering still...What if some sparrows didn't fly and clover neglected to flower?...How crazy would that be? What if they spent half their time tending the business of others? When could they individually be?
It takes full time use of our best energy and time to develop clarity, calmness and a sense of correction.

You spoke of sparrows and said "fortunately, to be anything other than themselves is not in their nature"
I thought... what if something beautiful comes from being something other than yourself? The sparrow in all of its simple intensity invariably represents sacrifice, humility and love and I found it interesting that you used this particular creature. Through your words I tried to imagine a sparrow with broken wings or no wings and then determine what its value would be without the full ability to realize its natural purpose. Not crazy at all. Maybe that's when it's purpose could make the most sense.
Whatever the answer is you are correct about Solace. It definitely provides insight to intent and has given even stones the ability to sing I'm told. Thanks for the richness of your thoughts. I swear more people need to be seein' you up on this blog dude.
That is interesting to consider. I believe this: if we have some sort of physical event happen to us then our purpose changes accordingly but not necessarily totally different from one of our original purposes.
What is the reference to stones singing?
I found this link:

This is wonderful and a testament to the fact that we all have multiple purposes, many of which for every individual are yet to be discovered.
The last two lines of this post stay with me!
Thanks for sharing. In keeping with those lines, this post may be of interest, Energy Efficient.
