ANIMALs



     There were two birds each seated in different trees.

     One in a beautiful, flowering tree with much shade from the burning sun. The fruits of the tree were fragrant & succulent, one would indeed consider the bird sits in avian heaven.
     The other bird’s perch is a dead tree trunk. Denuded of bark, of foliage, shade-lessly hot in the burning sun. Barren of fruits or flowers. Nothing but a stump of wood sticking up from the ground only serving to give perch support to the bird.

     It would in many other creatures’ natural inclination [human being’s especially] to very immediately IMPROVE it’s stature by hopping over to the ‘better’ higher end 'property'.

     Often times indeed the second bird does just that.

    The bird in avian paradise -  though having it’s personal space, it's home - TREE [where it was born, where generations of his ancestors had origin & final dispositions] “threatened”, “invaded”, “intruded”, "compromised" [by human reckoning/values]  -  DOES NOT take any measure to dislodge, evict or prevent the ‘intruding’ 2nd bird.
Even if it sits right next to it, the first Animal would simply shift a little to the side - to make room.

There-in the difference, between MAN (?made in HIS image) & ANIMAL
 

Which the former,  which the animal?
