Birds who are raised in captivity don't know any better. The cage they are raised in ends up being their home, their safe place. If you left the door open to their cage, they would likely not leave and if they do leave they will likely come back.
Unfortunately most of us are also raised in cages but the cage is not a physical cage. It's built in our minds through the environments, experiences and people we have been exposed to. We don't ask questions because we're afraid of looking dumb. We don't go after our dreams because we're afraid we might fail. We don't ask that special person out on a date because we're afraid of rejection. We focus on the negative and ignore the positive. We do things that are comfortable and we stay in our cage (and then we complain about it). Little do we know, the door to the cage is open. There's a whole world out there just waiting for us. All we need to do is take the leap and fly. Will it be easy? No. Will it be scary? Yes. Will we get hurt? Definitely. But will it be freeing? Hell yes! You get to choose. Do you want to be safe or do you want to be free? Comments are closed.
