Please note that this letter is in-process; the following are my notes

Dear Adam,

Story of the eagle and the snake

"About Wild Life
Posted by Dasha Taran, Quora, Dec 5

"Eagle does not fight the snake on the ground it picks it up into the sky and changes the battle ground, and then it releases snake into sky. The snake has no stamina, no power and no balance in the air. It is useless, weak and vulnerable unlike on the ground where it is powerful wise and deadly."
