THE PEOPLE ISSUES
By Robert Schuller
A western farmer on a
mountain hike found an egg
lying in the grass. He picked
it up, took it home, and put it
under a hen that was sitting
on chicken eggs. Eventually
the hen hatched the egg,
along with the other eggs.

most awkward, crude, ugly-
looking creature the farmer
ever saw.
He called the neighbors in
and asked if they knew what
it was but they could not tell.
It developed wings that be-
came a heavy burden on the
little body - big, oversized
clumsy wings that were too
big for him. And the beak,
instead of being straight and
