The Zone

When you're far away from home, your perspective shifts. You're removed from your life and placed in a surrounding of silence- there is no more movement, there is but silence and calm. Its in these moments that i manage to reflect best on my life and the path i've walked.

In these "zero moments" which i find define my life the most. It is in these moments that i see clearly through the fog and the numbness of everyday life. Its these moments thatb define who i will be.

When we're far away from our usual 24/7 lives, we change. We find new starting points, new corners to grab hold onto...a new outlook. When we leave the sheleterd womb of our home, we are able to spread our wings and fly.

Why? how?

When we are in our ususal environment, we are stuck in a rut. There is no reason to evolve, to change or to adapt because everything is working as it always has. When we are forced to leave that comfort, when we have to let go of what was comfortable and safe. Letting go is always difficult, but at the end its what makes us strong.

Recently, i've let go of a person who made me feel i was unimportant and small. I had to step out of my comfort zone, i stumbled a couple of times but ultimately i am now a better person because of it.

Whats funny is that once you let go of all the things in your life that make you feel small and unimportnat you re-attach yourself to your value.

Find you value by getting out of the zone!!
