Burning down the fence…

09 Dec

I wonder how conditioned we are. How we avoid to do things that we want to do because of negative feedback.

Perhaps at first we don’t realize our reaction. We avoid doing certain things because they are now associated with pain. They are external fears that have become internalized.

A little how we train animals with electric fences. They remember the shock and avoid it, never even thinking of touching it again.

I wonder if some of our fears are not like that and I wonder when we stop fighting and accept the fence. And where we find the courage to break that cycle.

What are my fences, what are yours?

Two scenes today which means another 1600 words added to Ancient Secrets and a short run this morning in the frigid streets of Seattle.

Small steps, leading somewhere.

Blessed Be.
