Tiny boxes

November 18, 2020

We love simple. We love boxes. We love dichotomous thinking.

When things fit nicely into our confirmed bias boxes life is easier. We feel there is order and purpose. But that’s simply not how life is.

We can’t continue to put the world into our own little box and expect it to stay there. If we expect to grow so will everyone else and all the tiny boxes will crumble under that weight.

If we can expand our thought, if we can break down the self-made boxes that are holding us in or are attempts to hold others in, we can see the oneness and the potential for us all. And once we do it can never be unseen. But it’s going to take work.
