The Little Sparrow

Picture a little sparrow pecking up crumbs in a courtyard on a winters day. Look closely--cats surround her waiting to pounce. The sparrow is small meek and vulnerable. She lives under the heavy cloud of threat and danger. What would it take for this fragile bird to rise up to out-fly the dangers that surround her and transform into a strong proud eagle who guides and protects others within her range? The story of this transformation is my life story.
