A story is told of a man who found an eagle’s egg. He put it together with the eggs of the mother hen.
Soon the eggs hatched. The young eagle grew up with all the other chickens. Whatever the chickens did, the eagle also did. He thought he was a chicken, just like them.
One day the eagle saw a bird flying high above him. He was very impressed. “Who is that?” he asked the mother hen.
“That’s the eagle, the king of the birds,” the hen replied. “ Oh,” the eagle cried, “I wish I could soar like that eagle.” “No. You cannot soar like him. You are a chicken and chickens do not soar. He belongs to the sky and we belong to the earth – we are chickens.” – the mother hen told him.
That was what the eagle learned to believe. After time, the eagle stopped dreaming and continued to live his life as a chicken.
Why not try to spread and to flap our wings rather than listening from the comments of others. Wishing to be like somebody we want to be is a good start and making it happen would be the best move to take.
