A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground in a large field and while it was lying there freezing, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him. As the bird lay there, motionless in the pile of cow dung, it began to realise how warm it was. The dung was actually thawing him out. He lay there all warm and happy and soon began to sing with joy, but a passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung and promptly dug him out and ate him.

Three lessons can be learned from this story…

Number 1
Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.

Number 2
Not everybody who gets you out of the shit is your friend.

Number 3
When you’re deep in the shit, it’s best to keep your mouth shut.
