Meaning of Proverb & Background

Imagine a time when you were feeling a bit down or having a tough day, like a rainy season in Africa where it’s hard for fowls to find food because their feathers are in the way. Now, think about someone who came to your aid, just like helping those fowls by trimming their feathers. It’s like having a superhero by your side.

You see, when people help us during our difficult times, it’s like they become our superheroes. And just as those fowls never forget the help when their feathers were causing problems, we, too, should always remember the kindness we receive from others.

It’s like having a treasure chest in our hearts filled with gratitude, and every act of kindness we experience adds another precious gem to it. So, always be grateful for those who lend a hand when the rainy days of life come along.
