Interesting thing here – i have written about walls and painted walls (as in on paper – not literally) for years.
Here’s one short piece:http://sebtown294.blogspot.com/2010/06/walls-interest-me.html
I think for me, fear doesn’t get in the way of talent – what talent? At the moment, it is keeping me rooted in a job that certainly has satisfying moments but, more importantly, includes a paycheck and health insurance. How would my life be different if I could let go of my fear of ending up as a bag lady? In reality, that is unlikely to happen. I own a house (recently refinanced for yet another thirty years but with equity) and I have eight siblings and two offspring who would help me if I needed it. Hard to shake the fear of being poor when you grew up in poverty though….. 🙁
Thanks for the post,
This is specially tailored for me, it is my life, period- am sorry to report. Fear is VERY crippling.
Learned this at BlissDom: FACE YOUR FEAR- You will never know yoru possiblities if you don’t take that chance.
I so agree. M. Prada said: “Thinking about age all the time is the biggest prison women can make for themselves,” Prisons are just Walls that hem us in!
I think when I turned 50 I decided that I had had enough of those confines (or walls) that I kept putting in my way. It has taken me quite a while to be able to say that, for the most part, I’m knocking those walls down every day – no rebuilding for me – well at least not those.
