Fly Like An Eagle

Yesterday I walked in misty cool rain. It was refreshing. Though I have only been getting in a half hour workout, the consistency is in my favor.
I'm making my workout somewhat at three speeds, 10 minutes walking light and free with arms swinging, 10 minutes of power walking, 10 minutes of jogging. I switch around who get mindfulness first. Though admittedly, it seems my mind keeps coming back to me and my own issues. I try to discipline my mind to stay focused on the dedicated person for the 10 minutes.
Today I found it distinctly interesting that I did not see any birds for the first bit of my walk. I searched for them and when I couldn't see any, I took my ear plugs out to check if I could hear any. Nope. The first bird I noticed was the fake Eagle sitting uptop the flag pole in front of my facility. Then, as I was wrapping up the walk, one solo big black bird flew. I thought it interesting that he was flying high, but it was under a storm cloud. There were other patches of blue sky and fluffy white clouds, but this big black bird seemed to hover under the storm cloud. Then two little birds flitted by. That's all the birds for today's walk.
However, I gained some insight as I have been listening to Joel Osteen. Joel brought up how crows are harrassers of the Eagles. They fly around Eagles just to pester them. So what do the Eagles do? They just amped up their altitude and fly higher then a crow can comfortably fly. Morale of the story....fly free, but if you are being pestered by harassers or even harassing thoughts... then pick up your altitude to a higher place. Soar above your problem makers.
Steve MIller band had a popular song named Fly Like an Eagle :

Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future.........oohhh
Said I wanna fly like an eagle... to the sea
Fly like an eagle let my spirit carry me, I wanna...

Fly right into the future....
I wanna feed the babies... said, who can't get enough to eat
Wanna shoe the children... no shoes on their feet
I wanna house the people... livin' in the street
