To be fully alive, fully human, and completely awake is to be continually thrown out of the nest. To live fully is to be always in no-man's-land, to experience each moment as completely new and fresh. To live is to be willing to die over and over again
Pema Chödrön - When Things Fall Apart
What story do you hold on to about yourself?
That you are the wolf or the red hood?
That you can or cannot do this or that?
To old? To busy? To smart? To inflexible?
To vulnerable? To strong?
Anything you think you know binds you.
Go inside. Then go out there. Live your Life as you want to.
And know that the nest is always there. Inside.
