It is difficult indeed when a Duck, although a bird, lives amongst Chickens and tries to Cluck.  The Duck forgets to fly high.  The Duck forgets to harmonize itself with nature and fly south when the seasons change.  The Duck forgets the cleansing and nourishment it receives from the watery ponds, lakes and streams.   Eventually the Duck Quacks up, yet the desire to Quack, not Cluck, is the nature of the Duck.  It is the nature of the Duck to fly high and see the big picture, not fly low and running on only earthly views of obstacles and fences of limitations...Know Thyself.
Baba Kwasi
