Questions

Who are you beyond all the shields you’ve so carefully placed between yourself and the world, that it’s become too hard to recognize you without even one of them?

What are you like without your constant need to secure all that you think you should very cautiously continue protecting?

Are you able to identify exactly what you’ve been protecting all along, or have you only gotten so used to those walls and their irreplaceable presence?

Are you willing to miss out on the joy, just because some pain might possibly slip through while you’re unconsciously allowing yourself to enjoy it?

Will you ever stop blaming those you’ve accidentally opened your heart to yet ended up not being up to your unspoken expectations, for everything you’re not sure how you’ve now turned out to be?
