Birds Of A Feather Flock Together.

Birds Of A Feather Flock Together. :



Birds of the same kind are often seen to flock and fly together. Those of the same kind only flock together. A swallow would not be seen to join a goose and vice versa. Some special kinds of birds which cross the seas in search of warm regions go in flocks. This is because a bird can be comfortable only in flock of its kind. This is the case in human beings also. Those with similar tastes and interests often form groups and associate with one another. They might not be feeling comfortable in a different sort of company. In order to form a lasting friendship, people must have tastes and outlooks which they share in common. A person’s character can be assessed by the company he keeps. If he moves in a circle of drunkards, he will most probably be a rogue. If he moves among a circle of refined men, his civility is also likely to be enhanced. Likewise bad company can spoil his character to the utmost if he moves among them.
