A man was on the side of the road with a large birdcage.  A boy noticed that 
the cage was full of birds of many kinds.   "Where did you get those birds?" he 
asked.

"Oh, all over the place," the man replied.  "I lure them with crumbs, pretend 
I'm their friend then when they are close, I net them and shove them into my 
cage."

"And what are you going to do with them now?"

The man grinned, "I'm going to prod them with sticks, and get them really mad 
so they fight and kill each other. Those that survive, I will kill.  None will 
escape."

The boy looked steadily at the man.  What made him do such things?  He looked 
into the cruel, hard eyes.  Then he looked at the birds, defenseless, without 
hope.   "Can I buy those birds?" the boy asked.

The man hid a smile, aware that he could be on to a good thing if he played his 
cards right.  "Well," he said hesitantly, "The cage is pretty expensive, and I 
spent a lot of time collecting these birds, I'll tell you what I'll do, I'll 
let you have the lot, birds, cage and all for ten pounds and that jacket you're 
wearing."

The boy paused, ten pounds was all he had, and the jacket was new and very 
special, in fact it was his prized possession. Slowly, he took out  the ten 
pounds and handed it over, then even more slowly he took off his jacket, gave 
it one last look then handed that over too. 

"Thank you very much," the man said.  "What are you going to do with all these 
birds now?"  The man stood watching in disbelief, a muffled   utterance 
escaping his lips as the child opened the door to release  the birds.

Looking up into the eyes of the hardened man, the small child commented in 
response, "Hate holds on, while Love lets go."
