putting birds on things was genius. i have to admit, it went completely unnoticed in my mind until watching portlandia. birds are on everything. it's pretty amazing because birds can fly and the rest of us can't. so i think subconsciously when we see a bird on something we want it because deep down we all want to fly.
why didn't Jesus make us so we can fly?
as you know i've been trying to perform feats of strength lately. it takes work. it takes training. it takes a lot of effort, study and sweat. but i'm getting better at it. i can almost tear an entire deck of cards in two. i feel my hands, forearms and entire body getting much stronger. it's really fun too. i like it because not many people do it, and it will be great for parties.
i think it's kind of like the birds of the air. there aren't many creatures who get to do it. i assume they laugh at us internally (birds can't laugh out loud...that would just be crazy) and feel strong when they look down and realize we can't do what they do.
i don't know why Jesus made us so we can't fly. maybe it's so we realize we aren't the only ones on the planet. maybe because he knew we'd build things to overcome that. maybe he didn't want us to get cocky (bird pun intended). maybe he just wanted us to be able to marvel at his creativity and enjoy the view.
