The Sparrows Economy

Very seldom do I get a chance to just sit and think. A few weeks ago my husband hoisted a bird feeder up in the air into a tree right outside a picture window in our bedroom. It has given us a focal point in the mornings as we enjoy our coffee and has been very therapeutic. (There must be a spa treatment in all of this!)

All kinds of birds come to that feeder, some beautiful cardinals, a few chickadees, an occasional squirrel-(not sure where he falls in to the bird world), and those sparrows. By the droves they come in and eat from our bird feeder every morning.

One day, we were very busy and did not have time to go out and refill the feeder. There was not a lot of feed left, but there were still the same amount of birds coming and seemed to still have what they wanted and left.

It struck me that we humans are kind of the same way. When there is a lot, we use it all up quickly and think we need more. When there is little, we still seem to get by on what we have.

I know it is a tough economy out there. We live it everyday ourselves. Spa, for some people was a luxury, but some are finding that it has become a necessity for their sanity. We use to have a lot and now we have less, but we keep getting by.

It is our commitment this year to continue to provide the best services possible for you tired, hungry, weary sparrows for the very best prices around. We promise not to get too busy that we forget to keep refilling the feeder for you.

Serving You.
