That somehow, you know you were made for bigger and better things? Well, chances are, you’re probably right… and don’t you let anyone convince you otherwise. A man once found an eagle’s egg and put it in a nest of a barnyard hen. The eagle hatched with the brood of chicks and grew up with them. All his life, the eagle did what the barnyard chicks did, thinking he was a barnyard chicken. He scratched the earth for worms and insects. He clucked and cackled. And he would thrash his wings and fly 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 powerful wind currents, with scarcely a beat of its strong golden wings. The old eagle looked up in awe. “Who’s that?” he asked. “That’s the eagle, the king of the birds,” said his neighbor. “He belongs to the sky. We belong to the earth — we’re chickens.” So the eagle lived and died a chicken, for that’s what he thought he was. What a terrible waste… to have lived a life not doing the things you were always capable of doing, and not soaring to the heights that you were able to reach. And all because the people around you were constantly putting you down, and feeding you with negative, uninspiring comments. So rise above these comments! Life is what you make it, so don’t be afraid to spread your wings and fly. [[VictorGbengaAkinrinmade]] [[488215404541395]]
