AS PROUD AS A PEACOCK

  "As proud as a peacock" Yeah, you gotta know that phrase to pass your English exams, yet it is so completely false. The peacock's beautiful feathers were given, by the One who makes all things beautiful, to show who it is. Yet, spreading those feathers to make a magnificent fan, rather than fascinate, has earned it the badge "prideful". For being? For daring to be seen? For refusing to hide its beauty away? For knowing that to truly be, there has to be an audacious expression of self? For refusing to be like another bird, who does not have such feathers and cannot spread those it has like so? Okay.
