I just started seeing these small orange cones dotting the floor of the Main Studio taking XCLR8 last Friday but the metaphor has a much larger connotation. To me it meant that I have to establish boundaries in my life and when they are crossed I need to speak up and not let anyone run slipshod over me relying on my gentle nature.
An orange cone can be moved but its me that will move it not those unauthorized who seem to make unilateral decisions that are not for them to make. Comments about me personally will always be someone else’s opinion and nothing more. It is the power that I give them that makes unacceptable behavior seem acceptable when by any account it is not.
I will live my life and not hold court to anyone else’s opinion about what is best for me. Left to my own mind and heart I will live longer even if it is for me to be alone.
One thing I fnow is that you will never be alone. You are on the path to a better life. Your opinion of yourself is so much more important than that of other. You are gaining self respect.
