Ten Lessons from the HEN

Ten Lessons from the HEN:
1.She first lays enough eggs before sitting on them: Good
planning
2.When she starts sitting on her eggs, she minimizes
movement: Discipline
3.She physically loses weight while sitting on her eggs due to decreased feeding: - Sacrifice & self denial
4.She can sit on eggs from another hen: Indiscriminate & generous.
5.She sits on her eggs for 21 days: Patience. Even when the eggs do not hatch, she will still lay eggs again: Faith, hope & encouragement
6.She detects un-fertilized eggs and rolls them out: Sensitive and discerning
7.She abandons the rotten eggs and starts caring
for the hatched chicks even if it is only one: Wise, conscious and realistic.
8.No one can touch her chick: Protective love.
9.She gathers all her chicks together: Unity of
purpose.
10.She can't abandon her chicks before they
mature: Mentorship
So, continue brooding on your dreams, for one day, they shall
hatch and you shall see them grow. Never give up; keep on trying.
