"If You Think You Are Unhappy"

We were cleaning the classroom the other day, and one of the EAs found this story posted in one of the old cabinets. It made me laugh after I read it, so I thought I'd share it with you and maybe you'll have a chuckle too.

"If You Think You Are Unhappy"

Once upon a time, there was a nonconforming

sparrow who decided not to fly south for the winter.

However, soon the weather turned so cold that he

reluctantly started to fly south. In a short time ice

began to form on his wings and he fell to earth in

a barnyard, almost frozen. A cow passed by and

crapped on the little sparrow. The sparrow thought

it was the end. But, the manure warmed him and

defrosted his wings. Warm and happy, able to

breathe he started to sing. Just then a

large cat came by and hearing the chirping,

investigated the sounds.

The cat cleared away the manure, found the

chirping bird and promptly ate him.

**The moral of the story**

1. Everyone who shits on you is not necessarily your enemy.

2. Everyone who gets you out of shit is not necessarily your friend.

3. And if you're warm and happy in a pile of shit, keep your mouth shut.
