Which would you rather be?

Once there were two eggs discussing what they wanted to be when they hatch.

The first egg said, "I want to be an oyster when I hatch. An oyster just sits in the water. It has no decisions to make. The currents of the ocean move it about, so it doesn’t have to plan. The ocean water that passes by is its food. Whatever the ocean provides is what the oyster may receive, no more, no less. That’s the life for me. It may be limited, but there are no decisions, no responsibilities, just a plain existence controlled by the ocean."

The second egg said, "That’s not the life for me. I wish to be an eagle. An eagle is free to go where he wants and do as he pleases. Sure he is responsible for hunting his own food and making survival decisions, but he is free to fly as high as the mountains. The eagle is in control, not controlled by others. I wish no limits placed on me. I do not wish to be a slave of the ocean. For this I am willing to pay the effort required to live the life of an eagle."

Which would you rather be? An Eagle? or An Oyester?
