My fav saying <poem or whatever you want to call it> is as goes...AHEM:
A squirrel learns to climb by climbing,
A bird learns to fly by flying,
A monkey learns to swing through the trees by swinging,
In all of the animal world each species learns from their mommies and
daddies,
and in packs<Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, etc.>
But yet some Humans think if we are left to our own devices, our children
will fail to learn, we are not capable.
Have any of you ever seen a school to teach a bird how to FLY????


Sorry....just had to vent : )
If anyone has that poem or saying can you send it to me PLEASE????

John O. Andersen

Thanks, I liked that. It truly says it all in a way few people ever
consider.
