Storms will come and storms will go. It's either you're just coming out of a storm or you are about to get into one, they seem programmed into life.We all face storms of life, storms of life are the expected but most times unexpected challenges that show up in our lives when we least expect it. What makes the difference between people is how we go through the storm, our attitude to the storm. Our perspective is very important when it comes to overcoming the storms of life. Some see the storm as an opportunity to rise to greater heights, for some others they see the storm as the end of all they have laboured for or achieved.
The eagle is like the former, there is a lot we can learn from this marvellous champion of the sky. I am fascinated by the eagle. When the storm comes in the direction of the eagle, the eagle smiles stretches out its wings and uses the currents of the wind to rise above the storm unhurt. This should be the attitude of every man to those challenging situations of life. Difficulties do not come to break us but to make us.
The eagle is a bird associated with many great qualities- speed, courage, vision, high altitude, fearlessness, gentleness and strength. Of all these qualities it's ability of vision is perhaps the most important, the eagles vision is what's responsible for its sense of direction, orientation and perspective. Because the eagle has an ability to see from a very far distance it survives better than other birds, it sees what they do not see and is able to scheme faster to catch it's prey.
The eagle is the only bird that can look at the sun directly, and the only bird that has a positive outlook to the storm, so naturally it rises higher than other birds and is a better survivor. This is because it sees differently from other birds, thats the power of vision!
Are you an 'eagle' ? Be like the eagle today.
