​Have you ever found yourself in that place where enough is enough!!  Life is fully on top of you and it seems that the slightest mishap will have you plummeting over the edge into mind numbing, body twitching lunacy.  It’s all way too hard and you can’t and don’t want to keep up anymore.  You’ve lost yourself and you’ve lost your glimmer.  Your capacity to function at your best in all the many and varied roles you keep has totally deserted you.  Life has lost its shine and you finally KNOW the true understanding of what it feels like to exist in the ‘rat race’.  What a hopeless place to be!  STUCK STUCK, STUCK, POWERLESS TO MOVE.  We need to pay the bills, raise the kids, keep up social commitments, get a bigger and better house,  attend to our friendships,  throw a bone to our significant other, keep fit, eat well, take time out for ourselves.  Are you KIDDING me – Take time out for WHO?  I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHO THAT IS ANYMORE.  

Have you ever desperately wanted something and found yourself willing to do and try almost anything to get it!  You get that thing and then after a while the novelty wears off and you lose interest……. or become matter of fact about it.

I think most of us can probably hold our hand up to this experience, whether it be a new car, job, friend or relationship we eventually find ourselves in the reality of the comfort zone.  One of life’s paradoxes is that we at one time or another want to be in the comfort zone and yet if we stay there for too long it can become humdrum and lifeless. 

“Life is your mirror – What you see as your outside.  Always comes from your inside!” Unknown
