MOTIVATION TODAY: ..And away it Flew!

I remember the story of a farmer in the country side who once picked an egg down the valley.

This enthused man put the egg in the midst of his hen's eggs hoping they would all be hatched together.

Several weeks after they were hatched, all the chicks were in the open valley playing as usual.

They would peck at small insects and worms with their juvenile beaks.

On a fateful day while the chicks were all out in the valley enjoying the scenery of the open valley

with Sunshine shimmering down their feathers, there appeared this majestic bird hovering gracefully above their heads.

Intrigue met with utter surprise as they saw how limited they have been all the while on the ground.

However,  one of the chicks felt a kind of chemistry with the eagle bird hovering above them.

Out of curiosity and a daring spirit it whispered to its fellows; 'I look like that bird up there, and something tells me I can fly likewise. '

The other chicks laughed this enstranged chick to scorn warning it, never to think that way or even dare to fly.

On another occasion,  the same opportunity presented itself again but this time around a different response was in mind.

The eagle hovered lower than ever, it was as if it had detected that there was something different about this enstranged chick.

On a closer look, it was clear to both of them that they share the same species!

Upon this discovery, the eagle began to woo this eaglet who had found itself in the midst of the chickens all its life.

Spurred by this sudden awareness of his real but hidden identity, the eaglet began to flap its juvenile wings in an attempt to launch its first flight.

After several failed attempt to lift itself n fly, the eagle screamed at the little eagle,

'you are an eagle, you are destined to fly, why die in the midst of chickens? You don't belong here anymore, 

you may have been here all your life but you don't have to remain here any longer!'

Those words rang through the being of the eaglet turned chick and from no where it mustered all the strength it could to fly one more time.

In the full glare of all the chicks, the eaglet having been spurred by its mother took its flight.

It was such a beautiful sight to behold, seeing what was meant to be up in the sky, taking the boldness to be itself.

The eaglet flew off with its mother never to be seen again with the chicks.

May this be your experience today.

You are destined to fly why die crawling?

Why settle for less when you can be more?

Yours in motivation, 

Eagle
