This cartoon presents a pretentious hen in that he feels he is better than the other hens. He claims that his eggs are not common eggs, therefore, laying eggs is not his duty. However, in actuality they are just like all of the other eggs and have no special qualities. This hen is doing the others a disservice by not contributing.
We also do this in our everyday life. We may feel that we are more talented or smarter than other people are and, therefore, feel it is our right not to use our gifts. What we fail to realize is that everyone contains gifts, and society would be greatly injured if each person did not contribute what they have to offer. Nothing gives an individual the right to sit back and ride off others contributions.
