A BIRD WITH WINGS WHO DARES ....

TIME IS SWIFT, 

           IT RACES BY, 

OPPORTUNITIES ARE BORN

           AND DIE....

STILL YOU WAIT 

       AND WILL NOT TRY ---

 A BIRD WITH WINGS 

WHO DARES NOT RISE & FLY.

        ---  AA Milne. 

 

Another Nice Chinese proverb

YOU CAN NOT PREVENT THE BIRDS OF SORROW FROM FLYING OVER YOUR HEAD, 

BUT YOU CAN PREVENT THEM FROM BUILDING NESTS IN YOUR HAIR.
