Traveling down the road

Self-imposed prisons are not fun. In many ways I've been caging myself - telling myself that I am being safe. For a very long time. But no more. I'm taking the bars down and changing my story one step at a time.

I like being in control. Don't we all? But in an effort to stay in control I go to some pretty ridiculous levels. Let's take driving. I had told myself that if I didn't know exactly how to get to a place by being driven there first at lease once if not several times - then I can't do it.

Well I've done it. And guess what? Nothing horrible happened. Everything is okay. I just followed the directions.

Old thought: I can't drive anywhere unless I've been there before
New thought: I can conquer anything.
