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…

The self-confidence of the warrior is not the self-confidence of the average man. The average man seeks certainty in the eyes of the onlooker and calls that self-confidence. The warrior seeks impeccability in his own eyes and calls that humbleness. The average man is hooked to his fellow men, while the warrior is hooked only to infinity.
~ Carlos Castaneda
