Eagles face the unavoidable

As soon as an eagle is born, it is taken care of by its parents. They provide it with food and shelter. Use their bodies as shields to protect the young from strong hails and storms. Life seems all too easy for them. All they really care about is the next feeding time and thats it. No worries and life is all the same.
When the youngs reach 10 weeks, the mother eagle teaches the little ones to fly by making their nest so uncomfortable that they are forced to leave it and commit themselves to the unknown wold of the outside. She further makes them to starve, putting pressure on them to hunt on their own.
Intelligent creatures!!



Aren't we humans like them too? We take care of our youngs, teaching them as much as need be and then just when they are ripe, we expose them to the world.
I surely can relate to it, and i am sure you can too. Some of us leave our houses, go to different unheard places, study or perhaps settle there. At first the thought might bring a feeling of sadness in us, the thought of leaving your loved ones behind. But its all part of life.

And to continue where i left, and it might even cheer you up a bit if someone close to you is leaving too. Once the eagle takes it first flight, it soars thorough the heavens enjoying the freedom. Flies as much as its weak wings can bear.Then it hunts and slowly and gradually develops its own nest. But every once in a while it comes back to meet its parents and sometimes even bringing food to them :)
