The Cages We Create

It is said that if you repeat a lie often enough, it becomes accepted as true.

While repeating lies does not make them truth, the subconscious does not know the difference; once our lies are accepted as truth, those lies continue to program our beliefs. And mostly, those beliefs stem from our deepest fears. In effect, we perpetually program ourselves with fear.

The life we intentionally create becomes the invisible cage that the ego fears to grow beyond, for then it must release the belief that it is in control.
When life happens and we find ourselves beyond the cages we have known, it may seem we have hit “rock bottom.” Yet, only in this space of unknowing can we truly be free. The strongest foundation that we can build is built upon a foundation of vast, radical acceptance of many truths, not just the limited perspective of what we’ve been taught in this lifetime.

What cages have you built? What would it be like to set yourself free?
