Upon returning to the woods with the ribbon in hand，I was shocked to find the pigeon gone．Obviously it was taken away by a cat．There I stood，tears falling from my eyes，no bird to bury，a green ribbon in my hand．But the words on the ribbon stood out to me as never before："Who you are makes a difference．"
