Open the Door to New Experiences

In order to create life experiences you have to open new doors. Sometimes you may find yourself reluctant to go through these doorways, to put a wall up of excuses so you can’t see the doorway, but it is indeed still there. Other times, there are two doorways, one we must decide on taking and one we must leave behind. We may regret the door we decided to open, but it still leads us to new adventures and learnings. If you find yourself with no door, then you must build a door to lead you to new opportunities. It takes courage and uncertainty, but uncertainty is your guide to new adventures.

It is hard to be creative and have a sense of personal identity when you decide not to. Don’t be afraid to open the door, for you might never know what could be on the other side.
