Independent - Vunerable

Image
Do you like to be independent, self sufficient an individual,  free spirited or similar ? Most of the time I do and value it within myself.  This trait, while at times a quiet wonderful and free feeling, can also become a downfall to oneself. I  enjoy independence and a free spirited nature , however have of recent times started to think it could be in the way of truly sharing a piece of myself. The thought process for me valuing independence is that I can take full responsibility for who I am and how I guide my life, which I always want to be able to do.  However I have realised lately it is harbouring my growth as I am fearing vulnerability.  To be vulnerable means for myself that I need to let my guard down, which then allows a whole other fear to encroach as vulnerability exposes one to the possibility of attack or harm physically or emotionally. For the purpose of this post, its the emotional harm that may come from been vulnerable that has given way to fear.  Nevertheless as I wa

What's your limit ?

  Have you ever heard that the "Sky is the limit" and what does that mean? It obviously has more to do with the word limit than sky, therefore to fully appreciate this phase the understanding of limit i s  required. Therefore is a limit as far as you can go, get to, or the amount you can achieve?  how confusing. A limit is different for every single person. Whenever I think of this statement I wonder what the intent is for me to explore it. Am I not achieving my full potential ? I  myself, or even another saying this to me, therefore acts as reminder that the limit reached today may not be the limit reached tomorrow and the limits reached in the past are not the limits one can challenge themselves to in the future. My limit is also not your limit, in fact it is most probable that it will be non-identical in many ways. As humans we do come with our own set of beliefs and limits and therefore for most achieving a limit is just as individual  . The only way you can fully unders

One or many

One or many what do I mean ? For me I say the ones at this present time are minimal, why? because it is quite difficult to stand as a one. When you stand as one it doesn't mean you don't understand, what it does mean is you have hesitated before you reacted and thought for yourself. Is this thought for yourself right or wrong ? It could be a bit of both, after all you think based on your understanding and that there is why its difficult to be a one. Your understanding means you have to take full responsibility for that thought. Taking responsibility means you do not blame another for where you are at your present time and the thoughts that got your there. Why is this so hard ? Could it be that you acted on thoughts contrary to everyone else and thus you are rejected, seen as difficult, even seen as a person that just does not have much compassion. There could be many reasons, as everyone is so different and so their reactions are really only based on what they think is truth. T

  Rest can refer to leisure, relaxation or sleep.  The Human needs rest for many reasons but to me  the best possible reason is so you can go back and start again.  You clear the head of all that brain junk that is accumulating in there, gosh I am pretty sure we all have some stored somewhere in there, I know I do but resting actually takes care of it, it takes it a way for a while, and to me this is why rest is vital to the Human spirit. However we can never really clear the junk unless we get up, get moving and head forward in life.  As we get older life is going to put more junk in there, that's the way it is but we need to build up our resilience to tackle it.  Its okay to stop take a rest but then move on, this is how resilience is acquired, not staying in a state of rest.  Hey I would love to rest my life away for sure, but I might miss out on something waiting for me if I don't get up, get moving and move forward so I do need to wake from my rest to face what is around t
