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…
