We Create Our Own Cages

When something threatens our being, or any sense of knowing that we’re okay, we seek to protect ourselves.

Inadvertently we start creating a cage around ourselves to keep us feeling safe. We put up the bars one by one, and the next thing you know, we’re caged.

The dictator becomes our fear. Thinking it is protecting us, it keeps us trapped inside the smallness of our self-made cage, and we become imprisoned by our own minds.

These cages keep us from fully experiencing all life has to offer. We miss out.
