A true story: Stranger than Fiction.

Have you ever heard a parrot kept in an open cage? One neighbour of mine keeps a parrot in an open cage. Once he found a small parrot lying injured in his garden, he immediately took care of it, got it cured very lovingly, kept in his home in an open cage, with all the necessary feeds.
When the parrot became quite big enough to fly, one day it flew away. To every ones surprise it returned to its cage at dusk. This continued for days creating a sight for amusement for the neighbours.
After a few months our neighbour got tranfered to another city and his family started looking after the parrots feeds. After a couple of days of his transfer, the parrot also flew away for good.

This saddened the entire neighbourhood. The cage was always kept in its place with all the fresh feeds waiting for the parrot to return. Its master fell sick on hearing this news and had to be hospitalised. The entire neighbour hood prayed for his recovery and for the parrot to return.

After a couple of weeks of his recovery, he got his job tranfered back to our city, and stayed back. After a few days, to everyones surprise, the parrot returned back to its open cage one evening. The entire neighbourhood gathered at his place in disbelief to watch this wonderful miracle of nature. The atmosphere was filled with laughter and excitement. Everyones happiness knew no bounds.

If you love somebody, free it. If it is yours, it will come back to you. If not, it was never yours.
Yours4ever.
