Life Is A Choice
Two eggs are telling each other what they wanted to be when they hatch. The first egg said, “I want to be an oyster when I hatch. An oyster just stays in the water and never has to make any decisions. The current on the ocean move it about and it doesn’t have to plan on what’s ahead of it. Whatever the oceans provides is what the oyster receive, no more, no less.”
The first egg continued, “That’s the life for me. It may be limited, but there are no decisions to make and no responsibility to accomplish. There’s a secure existence controlled only by the ocean.”
The second egg has this to say, “That’s not the life for me. I wish to be an eagle for it is free to go wherever it wants to go and do what it pleases. Of course it is responsible for hunting its own food and making survival decisions, but it also free to fly as high as the highest mountain.”
“The eagle”, continued the second egg, “is in control, instead being controlled by others. I want no limits placed upon me, nor do I want to be a slave of the ocean. I am willing to expend the efforts required to live a life of an eagle. I will create myown destiny.”
what role would you like to portray in real life-that of an oyster or that of an eagle? The choice is yours!
“Life without Freedom is no life at all.”
