Definitely one of the best short stories I have ever read. Loved the moral behind the story. I have a feeling I have read this story before :-|

Absolutely loved this story.

It truly moved me. It's the story of a swallow that one day, while migrating to Egypt, lands on the shoulder of a golden statue. The statue cries on the bird and tells him of the poor people in the city he watches over, and pleads that he help him alleviate there suffering.

This moved me and brought me to tears by the end of it. It's a thoughtful bittersweet story about helping others in need and caring for one another.

Who is this 'God' guy and why did he show up at the very end without introduction?
