Resourcefully Yours

I would like to feel more resourceful. At first, I thought resourcefulness meant being able to start a fire and grow vegetables. These abilities are definitely resourceful, but I now think that part of resourcefulness is being present.

I feel present when I am in a state of wonder. Wonder lies between the past and the future and being right or wrong.

One of our hens hatched five chicks (they are so cute!) so I wonder about how the egg-to-chick thing happens. Some birds made a hole in a stump in our yard (left) and I wonder how they know when the hole is the right size.

I can google "how do birds know how big to make the hole" and find some sort of an answer that has to do with instinct, but what is the real impetus behind instinct? And that's where I stop - right in the middle of the question in a state of wonder and feeling present. In that state I feel true and connected...like I can do anything. A definite resource.
