Sparrow

Sparrows, House sparrow, Little brown bird

Small, brown and found almost everywhere people live, sparrows are easy to overlook. That's exactly what gives them meaning in a dream: they speak of ordinary life, simple joys and the value of things nobody makes a fuss about. A noisy flock chattering in a hedge feels like community and everyday cheer. A single sparrow may show you feel small or unnoticed. Many Christians see a tender message too, since the Bible says not one sparrow is forgotten, and "His Eye Is on the Sparrow" became a well-loved hymn.
