Sanctuary or Prison?

 

The surrounding walls are a means of protection, but are they?
They could be a sanctuary or they could be a prison.
What defines one from another?
Definition - one is a place of refuge, the other is a place where you're kept captive.
Do you ever ask yourself whether your surroundings are a refuge?
Or maybe they make you feel that you are being held captive?
Life has a lot of rifts, turns and hidden mysteries
So….. what keeps you ticking, what makes you carry on?
The answer lies within you in that only you can determine what is right and wrong,
Lives may change dramatically and in doing so may hurt many people.
But… without taking that initial step how will you know?

 

 

Take a moment, stand back and look at the picture as a whole to make sure that everything contained within the picture is in perspective.  When you are able to do that then you know that your life is complete.
