"The swan Serenade"

Whooper Swan (Cygnus cygnus)

  The sight of the graceful swans which Godlike glides on the mirror of the water touches us with 

their beauty both within our hearts and our souls.

H.C Andersen`s fairy tail teaches us something very important;  "ugly duckling" has a difficult 

childhood, becomes bullied, before he become a beautiful swan and finds his true self. 

That become a triumphant victory over those who previously bullied him

However something that seems very "plain", strange or different, can in itself be something 

very interesting unique or divine. As the saying goes; "Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder"  

so " the beauty" is there "to find and see" from the beginning even if some chose "not to see 

or even try to find".

Many times the swans in the magical fairy tails paints the picture of them as if they are floating 

through the centuries, having easy enjoyable life's...

Do they have that easy life we can ask ourselves...however we all know that, 

that picture is not entirely true.

The whooper swan have to fight every day to survive, it takes a lot of energy to be able to 

splash with their feet and a lot of energy to be able to lift their large body with their wings, 

during a long period their legs are too week to be able to hold their body weight...

 and they defend their territory towards other birds, sometimes even until the bitter end.

So their beauty one could say, becomes also their curse...
