A man found an eagle's egg and put it in a nest of a hen. The eagle hatched with the brood of chicks and grew up with them. All his life, the eagle did what the chicks did, thinking that he was a chicken. He scratched the earth for worms and insects. He clucked and cackled. And he thrashed his wings and flew a few feet in the air. Years passed and the eagle grew very old. One day, he saw a magnificent bird above him in the cloudless sky. It glided in graceful majesty among the powerful wind currents. The old eagle looked up in awe. "Who's that?" he asked. "That's the eagle, the king of the birds," said the neighbour. "He belongs to the sky. We belong to the earth - we're chickens." So the eagle lived and died a chicken, for that was what he thought he was. Are you a chicken or an eagle? How many times have you doubted your own ability in achieving certain goals or accompanishing certain tasks? We are all meant for the skies - not the chicken coop. Who will believe in you if you don't believe in yourself? Have faith in yourself and believe that you can achieve whatever you want. Be an EAGLE not a chicken. |
