New? Different? Feelings of being out of a comfort zone can be scary (even very scary), but I think every new “stretching” out into new territory is important. I once thought through every single scenario of what could possibly happen in a new situation, but now I figure on these things:
if an opportunity presents itself, it must have come along for some reason,
if an opportunity doesn’t feel threatening or harmful, it could be fine to try,
if I don’t try new things, I’ll never know.
These thoughts have gotten me past meeting new people, trying new activities (zip lining, SCUBA, etc.), and learning just how unlimited we all are if and when we decide to s-t-r-e-t-c-h.
Today I’m going to a Bastille Day celebration–for the first time and with French-speaking people I have never met. Should be interesting!
p.s. The website is finally being improved! If it’s down, I promise it won’t be for long.
