I really don't have much to say about the Sparrow. I don't wish to brag about her achievements that anyone could accomplish, or put her down; there is no need for either. I will tell you what the Sparrow looks for though, a simple life, I guess.. However, if you consider traveling the world to happen about something new everyday then I guess the Sparrow's plan won't seem very simple to you.

I don't wish to tell high tales of her, nor small tales that clip the Sparrow's wings. I just wish to tell tales of her being. Not tales of what the Sparrow does, but rather tales of what the Sparrow sees.

People often see the Sparrow but never see as the Sparrow. They see the Sparrow, flying and singing and exploring but they will never see what the Sparrow sees. They will never see the world above the trees or from down in the grass.

It's funny how the Sparrow sees everything, either good or bad, and yet the Sparrow's song is always soft and sweet. Maybe the Sparrow's song isn't always sweet, maybe her song is an outcry, but the people are too blind to see what it truly is. Maybe they are too blind from the initial sound of her music to realize that she is full of deception and what she sings about is disturbed and dark.

Or maybe the Sparrow sings herself an enlightened tune to cheer herself up. Maybe all the dark and disturbed she's witnessed has filled her being and changed her. Maybe the Sparrow remembers how she use to be, remembers her old happy song she use to sing, and that is why she sings it now, to help her remember the good, and forget the dark.

The sad thing is, that the Sparrow is yet to find, is that this darkness doesn't go away, it sticks with her, where ever she may fly; she just has to learn to fly with it and sing her tune not to cheer her up, but because she has once again found her cheer despite the darkness.

The Sparrow is a warning to all of you, whether you are able to fly with the darkness or not you must learn how; because if you cannot fly, you will not survive. The Sparrow will fly, and the Sparrow will be free.
