#280 Security
Inspired by: Eric ButterworthDiscuss this Big Idea in the Forums!
The word secure comes from two small Latin words: se meaning “without” and cure meaning “care” - being without care, freedom from anxiety.
Victor Hugo articulates this very special sense in this lovely couplet:
Be like the bird
That pausing in her flight
While on boughs too slight,
Feels them give way
Beneath her, and yet sings,
Knowing she hath wings.”
~ Eric Butterworth, 20th Century Spiritual Teacher
from Spiritual Economics
Secure.
To be without care.
That’s beautiful.
May we sing, knowing that we have wings…

“Hi Brian ~ Thought I'd drop you a note to let you know I continue to enjoy the daily quotes. Today really hit home as I'm in the process of self-imposed change. Dang it's uncomfortable and scary. Glad to know others are uncomfortably changing too. You're doing a great job!”
