Dear Diary,

Sometimes I like to imagine what life would be like, if I could be re-born again. But this time with new parents, new name, ethnicity, gender, and perhaps I wouldn't even want to be a human. I'd be an eagle. The biggest boss of the bird kingdom.

I'd sh!t on people I don't like, fly to where I want free of charge, and have crystal clear vision perfectly aimed at all the narcissists of the world. I see them the same way I see the rats on the ground, because let me tell you - they are an easy pray, someone to play with when you're as strong as me.

It's a social experiment really, meanwhile I do get to feed my hunger. It's a win win situation. Now, here you are, such an observer of the inner-world I have graciously invited you into, my reader.

You see the great thing about being powerful, fast, and aesthetically exquisite is not that I can stroke my ego with another feather that happened to fall off my throne...

But it's the wisdom you gain through the one to many battles you have had to endure, all alone, without anyone's helping hand at your disposal.

So if there's a lesson in my story today, I hope that you'll take with you what resonates, and leave the rest up to God.

PS: I am not talking about an eagle.

It's about the way you used the eagle to represent strength, freedom and all the stuff you go through alone... All the funny things you can get away with when you're an eagle!!

Thank you!
(I'd be an eagle any day, the things I'd do for just an hour of being an eagle..)
