I am sure, you have heard the story of a chicken farmer, who found an eagle’s egg and put it with the eggs of his chickens. Soon the egg hatched.
The young eagle grew up with all the other chickens, and did exactly whatever they did. He thought, he was a chicken.
Since the chickens could fly for a short distance, the eagle too learnt to fly a short distance only.
He never thought anything beyond that.
One day he saw a bird flying high in the sky. The eagle was very impressed and asked the hens around: “Who is that?”
“Oh, that’s an eagle, the king of the birds,” the hens told him. “He belongs to the sky. We belong to the ground.” So the eagle lived and died as a chicken.
