Why do we draw the line? Is it because we believe it's for the best? Or do we, for some reason, think we know what we want?

We don't have those answers, nor should we.

We shouldn't limit ourselves based on our current views since we should be more open-minded to whatever we are confronted with. We shouldn't set boundaries in accordance with what we think we want or deserve. Let's face it, who are we to finalize those types of decisions?

Why do we constantly assume the worst possible things whenever something random pops up in our faces? Why do we imagine how a conversation should go, or why do we plan ahead how an event should be?

Why do we lose ourselves in the mere thought that we are going to be judged by those around us if we do go for whatever lies ahead? When things may change, that's when we start to freak and back out for no apparent reason.

Turns out, in the back of our minds, we have already made the decision that certain things are just not doable, that we don't have the potential or that we aren't good enough to go for it. In our prime, we have already made that decision for ourselves, therefore, preventing us from moving forward.

Tiptoeing around fear, afraid that we might go too far from our comfort zones. Away from what we think we deserve,

"Will this change everything? What would happen if...?"

Why should we lack adventure in our lives? Friendships? Love? Self-love? Why should we watch from our cages while others are out there living the way they want?

We were put here on this Earth for a reason, and the reason is most definitely not to accept the gift of embracing who we are. Who says that we have to stay in one place in our lives forever?

Throughout college, I made a promise to myself that I wouldn't allow a guy to get in the way of my goals. Recently, during one of my outings with my friends, I was faced with whether or not I should go and meet up with one of my guy friends so that we could talk about our feelings.

I knew that if I went, it would only confuse things in my head and my heart. I was freaking out about it for some time, but I felt that I had to have a conversation with him.

My friend, who was with me, looked at me and asked, "Why are you limiting yourself?" I just looked at him and had nothing to say.

Why was I thinking of the worst possibilities instead of just going with the flow and following my intuition? He was right, and so, I went because, in the back of my mind, I knew that worrying about the outcome wouldn't entirely impact the situation.

It was funny because, that night, all three of us talked about the concept of anticipating how things should go, and then when we do create expectations, we aren't going to enjoy ourselves when the time does come because we were worrying so much about it being perfect.

That was spot on.

We should just worry about the future when that time comes rather than worrying about it in the now.

We need to just let things simply be and see where our heart takes us because, with what I've experienced so far, if it's something that we truly want, we couldn't possibly be wrong.

Some may say that less is more but in this instance, is it?
