白头鹰即将老的时候

本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛白头鹰,也就是老鹰的一种,动物中属于长寿鸟类,一般可以活到七十多。

但是,当它四十岁的时候,身体开始老化,爪子无法抓住猎物;它的喙愈来愈弯曲,几乎碰到胸膛;它的翅膀越来越沉重,因为羽毛太丰富。

这时它面临两个选择:要么接受现状,庸庸碌碌等死,再说,人生自古谁无死?

要么就折腾自己,来一次痛苦的重生。

老鹰选择了第二条路:它飞往高山之岭,在悬崖上筑巢暂住。

它忍住痛苦,开始对着坚硬的山石撞击自己的喙,直至脱落。

静待新喙长出后,它忍住痛苦,用新的喙拔掉自己所有的旧指甲。

静待新指甲长出后,它忍住痛苦,用新的指甲拔去自己身上所有的旧羽毛。

五个月后,新羽毛长出,整个身体获得更新,它告别悬崖的巢,开始再次飞翔,过余下的三十个岁月,全新的金秋岁月。

每个人的生命旅途中,可能都会遇到比较困难的选择,要放弃习惯了的生活,要离开熟悉的环境,这一切在年轻时不那么困难。

青春的逝去是直线的,社会的变幻却是曲线的。突然发现:要对于这个快速发展的环境做出快速的反应,我们的脚步滞重了,。。。。。。于是,我们想改变自己,为自己找更宽阔的路,可是又发现:怎么还要重新开始?我们累了~ 心情就比较沉凝。。。。在我们退休后,儿女展翅飞后,在大病时,远离家乡时,尤其是人生重大转折,真正的重新生活:走上移民之路时。。。。。

不过,

鹰且能如此,更乎人焉?

    • 真的假的?您老不会为了抒发感情,为了一作文,就发明一个动物故事吧?活70岁的动物可不多。鹰可以活70岁?你就胡说八道吧。
      • be nice, especially to senior citizens. @_@
      • 就是加拿大的白头鹰,在温哥华机场的电视上有播过。你可以google一下英文名字,或者等我空了,找出后回复你
        • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bald_eagle
          In the wild, Bald Eagles can live about 20 - 30 years, and have a maximum life span of approximately 50 years. They generally live longer in captivity; up to 60 years old.
        • something u should know what benjamin franklin once said, ;)
          本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛In 1784, after the end of the Revolutionary War, Benjamin Franklin wrote a famous letter to his daughter from Paris criticizing the choice and suggesting the Wild Turkey's character as a desirable trait:

          For my own part I wish the Bald Eagle had not been chosen the Representative of our Country. He is a Bird of bad moral character. He does not get his Living honestly. You may have seen him perched on some dead Tree near the River, where, too lazy to fish for himself, he watches the Labour of the Fishing Hawk; and when that diligent Bird has at length taken a Fish, and is bearing it to his Nest for the Support of his Mate and young Ones, the Bald Eagle pursues him and takes it from him.

          With all this Injustice, he is never in good Case but like those among Men who live by Sharping & Robbing he is generally poor and often very lousy. Besides he is a rank Coward: The little King Bird not bigger than a Sparrow attacks him boldly and drives him out of the District. He is therefore by no means a proper Emblem for the brave and honest Cincinnati of America who have driven all the King birds from our Country . . .

          I am on this account not displeased that the Figure is not known as a Bald Eagle, but looks more like a Turkey. For the Truth the Turkey is in Comparison a much more respectable Bird, and withal a true original Native of America . . . He is besides, though a little vain & silly, a Bird of Courage, and would not hesitate to attack a Grenadier of the British Guards who should presume to invade his Farm Yard with a red Coat on.

          Despite Franklin's objections, the Bald Eagle remained the emblem of the United States. It can be found on both national seals and on the back of several coins (including the quarter dollar coin until 1999), with its head oriented towards the olive branch.更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
          • many thanks, the older my age, the less knowledge I have. I feels like that and it is.
            • 不是你的错,是有这种说法。
              For those of you who have e-mailed me wondering if it's true that an eagle goes into seclusion, plucks all of its feathers, sheds its beak and talons, and then renews itself, is a myth. An eagle's beak and talons grow continuously, because they are made of keratin, the same substance as our hair and fingernails. Eagles molt in patches, taking almost half a year to replace feathers, starting with the head and working downward. Not all feathers are replaced in a given molt. An eagle without feathers, talons, and a beak would die of starvation and exposure.
      • 70岁是听说的。刚才查过了,真的只有三十年生命的样子。不好意思。。。。。
        • 是我应该道歉。我没有礼貌,您请原谅。
          • 其实没关系啦,现代的年轻人语气就是这样的。不过还是感动你的道歉,谢谢
    • 志在千里。。。
    • JJ心态真的很好,总是乐观,积极!向你学习!
    • 故事真假不论,很喜欢你的心得.....突然发现我简直就是提前进入老年期了,就喜欢安静平和的生活,什么变动也不想有了....反省中...
    • 促使人远走高飞的除了志向还有缘分, 万事随缘,心无增减, 祝您随遇而安,健康幸福.
    • 虽然对卉大姐从前发表的有些社会观点不敢苟同,但非常羡慕大姐的人生态度。祝大姐每一天都有新的色彩。
