Hatching

The moment that a chick in an egg is developed enough to hatch, the only thing holding it back from discovering the world outside is its willingness to put up with the discomforts of living in an egg.

It’s not just the shrinking physical space that contributes to the discomfort. The build up of metabolic waste from the development process can poison the chick and prevent its emergence.

In life, you have periods of development. You have periods of discomfort.

And you a have choice of whether to stay or grow.
