70 years, but to reach this age, the Eagle must make a hard decision
in it's' 40's
Its' long and flexible talons can no longer grab prey which serves as
food, its' long and sharp beak becomes bent.
Its' old-aged and heavy wings, due to their thick feathers, become
stuck to its' chest and make it difficult to fly.
Then Eagle is left with only 2 options: die or go through a painful
process of change which lasts 150 days for survival.
The process requires that Eagle fly to a mountain top and sit on its'
nest. There the Eagle knocks its' beak against a rock until it plucks
it out. After plucking it out, Eagle will wait for a new beak to grow
back. When its' new talons grow back, the eagle starts plucking its'
old-aged feathers and after 5 months, eagle can take its' flight of
rebirth and lives for 30 more years.
Moral:Many times, in order to survive, we have to start a change
process. We sometimes need to get rid of old memories, habits and
other past traditions. Only freed from past burdens, we can take
advantage of the present and future.
Even though you may want to move forward in your life, you may have
one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn to let go.
Release the hurt and fear, refuse to entertain your old pain. The
energy it takes to hang on to that part is holding you back from a new
life. If we stay imprisoned by fear and judgement of our human nature,
we will miss out on the whole reason for being here!
Our lives are not determined by what happens to us but by how we react
to what happens, not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we
bring to life. A positive attitudecauses a chain reaction of positive
thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst, a spark that creates
extraordinary results. Let's change to make a change!!!
"If you focus on results, you will never change. If you focus on
change, you will get results."
