One Castle Door

TODAY'S QUOTE:
"If there is one door in the castle you have been told not to go through, you must. Otherwise you'll just be arranging furniture in rooms you've already been in".... Anne Lamott

I know all about castle doors, and this quote gives some very practical advice. Even the most beautiful castles can become prisons if we act as jailers by refusing to escape or fearing to explore. If someone else has you on lock-down truly think about the cost of loving them and escape before you're emotionally and physically bankrupt. If it's you that struggles with leaving the safety of a self-imposed solitary... keep struggling. Either way it's always a good thing to remember that you possess all the power, if you're only willing to use it.

The prison may seem huge at first, but even the largest of cages eventually begins to pinch its inhabitant. Sealed doors have no place in any refuge and if our home isn't a refuge then simply rearranging the furniture won't improve anything. Explore! Escape if need be! But really live. Be the keeper of the keys, so no matter where you're at there won't be any locks to keep you trapped. And as always.... think about it.... let it ride.... then YOU decide!!!!
