Got you didn’t I? That’s not the song is it? Its fly like an eagle to the sea but in these economic times are you behaving like an eagle or are you scratching dirt and eating rocks? Not to be offensive but many times human beings embrace the way of the chicken, clucking, nervously looking around, gathering in large numbers and clucking. You can see evidence of this at the water cooler or in lunch rooms or more aversely watch the news. Within 10 minutes you will learn that our American way of life is collapsing and capitalism has failed and we need protection from the mother hen. This is what chickens do.
At times there are eagles amongst the chickens. You can tell who they are by their look of overwhelming stillness and sense of purpose. An eagle knows that it is an eagle and it will soar no matter what the circumstances. An eagle knows that he is responsible for creating his world. An eagle expects a handout from no one. An eagle does not peck at the ground hoping to find food. An eagle flies with purpose. An eagle is an eagle no matter where he is even if he is acting like a chicken. A chicken pretending to be an eagle is still a chicken. Sometimes a bird forgets.
This post is a reminder to remember who you are and conduct yourself accordingly
