DAY 40 - Reflections



This image reiterates the fact that everyday you learn something new. Every day, if you allow yourself, you can surprise yourself. You will do things which you thought you might never be able to. You will discover new joys and have revelations and epiphany -but only if you allow yourself to.

And by allowing yourself to experiences of life you are also allowing yourself to be vulnerable. And as a race, humans don't like to be vulnerable. Because by doing so we are exposing ourselves to views and opinions, criticisms and differences, things that might not make us feel comfortable. Being vulnerable also means you are forced out of your comfort zone.

I have discovered that I experience something new only when I get out of my comfort zone. And every time I do that I am vulnerable. And my vulnerability exposes me to newer experiences in life and the joyous cycle goes on. And in the process I learn something new every day -about myself and the world around me.

Five years back if someone had said to me that I would be able to produce this image I would've laughed at them.

A week back if someone had asked me to produce an image like this, I would've shook my head in the negative and said, "Mmmm...I don't know....maybe some of it...but not sure about the rest of it..."

Today -I have my name on this image :)

As I said, the day I decided step out of my comfort zone was the day I began my long and adventurous journey of discoveries!
