Is there room in the world for a Wild Barry? Wild Berries grow outside the cultivation constraints developed by our culture. What if there were a Wild Barry growing outside the limits and constraints of society.
Limits make living much more complicated than it need be. I know because I have been pushing against limits all my life. But not always.
I have been fortunate to have companions all my life who have invited, sometimes pushed, me beyond my limited comfort zone. For that I have no regrets. I have done things I likely would never have done on my own. Thanks to them, my experience of being alive has been expanded and I ignored the limits placed by a cautious culture.
Maybe this is one of the things we do for one another. We encourage and invite one another to go beyond the limits we put on ourselves. I am grateful for all the companions who have supported me to venture beyond my limits in thinking and acting.
