We can stay in our comfort zone, peering out and watching life go by, or we can venture out into the light and live.
I couldn't see anything else but being inside a cave and looking out at the sunshine on this page. It can be so easy to hide away where we feel safe, never venturing far from our 'cave'. But it's a life of shadows and fear. We need to go out into the light, even if we return to the cave at the end of the day. Sometimes we need to be somewhere comfortable. There are times of stress and exhaustion where our body and mind need to be in that comfort zone, but it isn't a place to live in all the time.
We all need reminding to step out of that comfort zone from time to time for the exact reason that it's comfortable.
Pow! That's a fabulous journal page and an apt note to accompany it. Stepping out of our comfort zone is so important, even if it's only for an hour, or a day. Love this!
ReplyDeleteYes, the discomfort is easily outweighed by the benefits
