Parakalein

I watched some birds flying on to our porch looking for a place to build their nest.

They like me are a little confused by mother nature who is messing around with father time.  Is it the first day of spring, is winter still coming, is it summer?  The birds obviously think we should have our planter out but our plants are barely ready to go outside and we do not trust the calendar or how it feels today.

I mused that we live the most free when we do not trust the think or thing we think we know (the calendar in our head) or the feeling we get from the experience we are having from the outside in (the weather of the day that we feel).  We are the most free and the most ready when we live from the inside out making the best of whatever is: enjoying when it feels good and when we feel secure and confident when it feels badly and shakes our sense of security.

Paul said, "I have learned in whatsoever state I am therein in to let my sense of security be my source of contentment."

Contentment is being "secure inside" regardless of the content of my day or the comments toward me in my day.  Content in this that you are at peace and are surrounded by loving energy regardless of anything.

How do you spell security: "contentment"

Oh and to the birds:  I told them I will get on getting our planters all hung for them by the end of the day!
