Word for the Day: Sunday, August 15, 2010

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Stability.

I like to tie the Daily Word to the Weekly Theme, when appropriate. And I firmly believe that Stability goes well with Domestication. I feel a typical relationship has long periods of stability, with periodic spurts of quick change, whether permanent (i.e. moving to a new city), or temporary (i.e. a vacation outside the country of the current household).

This ties in with a Michael Teachings concept called the Nine Needs. The top two on the list are Security (which is related to stability) and Adventure (a need which, when followed, often triggers spurts of quick change). I consider that balance is important, as too much security can get boring, and too much adventure can get scary.
