Comfort zones and routines are a way of avoiding vulnerabilities. Most the time it is easier to stay in one place versus opening yourself up to your demons. The risk of admitting that you are scared to rely on another person can be terrifying. Isolationism can become the cape we wrap around us to protect from the fears of rejection and abandonment.
It is only by showing our weaknesses that we are also able to show our strengths. It is by removing our capes that we can allow situations to help us grow. It is also the only way that we can take those chances to connect with our fellow man.
This is how we enter the cosmic connection of love in the universe.
(Please forgive the ramblings that caused me to wake up at 4am but needed to be voiced)

You were rambling? Sounded like the Dave I know and love to me. You're right. I have some new friends who have pushed me out of my comfort zone of anonymity and into the light. It's thanks to one of them, and her constant pushing, that I'm paid to write. And thanks to the other one's constant encouragement and enthusiasm, and some friendly competition,that I'm submitting fiction.
ReplyDeleteComfort zones, while comforting, can also hold us back. Bust out baby, the world's waiting.

Thanks Stacey - but I have to think that if it wakes me up at 4am it must be ramblings :)
