Birds Of A Feather

Ever wonder why when you see a group of birds that they only fellowship the same breed of birds?

How come pigeons, ducks, & blue jays don’t all hangout and fly around together?

The simple fact is that birds of a feather flock together. It’s a simple truth that everybody probably already knows, but this simple truth is easily applied to the life of a human being. Think of us as birds, if you’re a duck you’re not going to be flying around with a crow or a bald eagle. You would be hanging at the pond with your fellow ducks!

Take a second to reflect on your life. Who do hangout with? Are your close friends a positive influence on you?  You must take these questions into account because if you surround yourself with people who you don’t want to be like you are in for a rude awakening. Maybe at first you may notice any changes , but over time you will began to develop the same habits and characteristics as your close friends. Eventually you will start to walk, talk, and act like them.  The difference between us and a bird is that we can actually choose what kind of bird we want to be!

Choose your friends wisely; hang around people you admire and respect. People that you know will influence you in a positive way. It’s your life and you only have one! Make the right choices.
