Strength:The eagle has the longest lifespan of it's species.It can live upto 70 years but to reach this stage they have to take hard decision to survive.When an Eagle grows old, their feather get heavier, beak gets bend and talons don’t stay as sharp as they were. In order to survive, he goes to the top of the mountain and hits his beak against a rock till it goes out, healsoplucks out his feathers completely and removes talon too. Eagle now must wait for all three things to grow back and then fly to occupy the space again in the sky and hunt for prey. Eagles discard what is worthless and renew themselves. We have to take hard decisions in our life to survive. Those decisions could be pain full but they help us in long run. See the bigger picture in life.
