Of all species, this is the one that lives the longest life.
He can live to reach 70.
But, to reach that age, the eagle has to take a very difficult decision.
When about 40.
His long and flexible nails can no longer carry his prey,
his long pointed beak bends,
his wings, that have got heavy and old because of age and of the thick feathers, make it difficult for his muscles to support his flight.
==============================================
his long pointed beak bends,
his wings, that have got heavy and old because of age and of the thick feathers, make it difficult for his muscles to support his flight.
That is when the eagle only has two options to take: to die, or to go through a very painful process of transformation for 150 days.
The eagle flies up to a new nest on the peak of the mountain.
And there he continuously knocks his bent beak against the rock until it breaks.
After breaking his beak, he waits until a new one grows and then he snatches his nails with it.
Once the new nails have grown, he starts pulling out his old feathers.
So, five months later, the eagle resumes his famous majestic flight, he has been created for and which is the reason of his existence.
Do we really need to change?
In order to survive we often need to go through such a process.
Sometimes we need to give up the past, some symbols, stereotypes or habits.
Only by getting rid of past habits can we make good use of the PRESENT.
To be able to accomplish all these one needs a strong will….
