To open yourself to those who live outside your social boundaries runs the risk of allowing someone foreign to disrupt the controlled social environment that you have created."<br /><br />Intriguing thoughts. I struggle so much with this idea myself. I have a deep desire to genuinely connect with people I interact with - even casually, but this can get me into trouble (a wise counselor once told me, "Be wise with whom you share your heart"). Has opening myself up to others ever disrupted my social environment in a negative way? Absolutely! But the good connections far outweigh the bad, so I will keep doing it - even amidst the chaotic schedules, the rushing from one place to another - I don't have time either, but it really doesn't take that long to smile, to reach out. There are surprises to be had. Really nice ones.<br /><br />Thanks for continuing to do this. I just love it.Savorie Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07618307615533922972noreply@blogger.com
