Thinking About the Good Stuff: The True

“To Thine Own Self Be True” – Shakespeare (Hamlet, Act 1, Scene 3)

It seems that only the human creature frets about its life, its future, its behavior, its image, etc.  Birds, fish, and even these beautiful deer that showed up along my brothers’ front drive today, seem to be content to be who and what they were created to be… they are comfortable in their own skin.  They do, of course, experience pain, fear, and so on, but as to the truth of their being… they seem to be at peace.  May we, who also bear the imprint of the One who created us, learn to live as contentedly in our own skin.
