they divide and contain.
they separate us from experiences.
they create otherness.
even a cursory examination of my self reveals fences. fences that keep things in. fences that keep things out. fences to straddle.
it's as much work to maintain them as it is to take them down.
even a moment's thought reveals how unnecessary and harmful this all is.
so why do i need to do this?
where did i learn to be protective. to deny. to be prepared to run from my vantage point.
how do i let all of this go?
