Wisdom from the Ostrich Feather*

be nice to others

for things in this world won't last forever

same as the ostrich feather

be nice to your enemies

for today maybe their last day

like what happened to the ostrich yesterday

love good virtue more than people

love people more than good cars

and love children more than good ostrich

Respect diversity and variety

Respect the old, the antique, the new and novelty

As ostrich feather can be white, black or gray

Don’t let your worries be as big as the ostrich

Let your problems be as light as the feather

for anxieties will fade and dreams are within reach

Don’t be too attach to your looks or weight

Just be healthy, detach to the need of unworthy praise

Learn from the feather detached from the ostrich

Go with the flow as long as it’s a good flow

Be blown where the good wind wants you to go

The values you learn in life don't lose or forego

Like the ostrich feather

Clean the mess and wipe the dirt

as the ostrich feather can be a good feather duster

~Champs Ulysses Cabinatan
