With each day, we have a choice: we can build walls, block ourselves from the light and suffer a dampness. Or we can live barely, shine on through and suffer the nicks of erosion for living in the open.
Most of us choose to live behind walls. Often these walls were started as a result of others around us and finished by ourselves. We sometimes fear each other without reason-the wall builders and those who shine on through. But it really comes down to how to live life-safely or fully. The more risk taken to be who you are, the thinner the walls need to be.
There are times walls are necessary, but more often we can protect ourselves by being who we are. Neither hiding or revealing ourselves will prevent our share of pain, but in being who we are we experience the natural effects that moving forward brings and be a part of the flowing stream.
