How often do we cocoon ourselves with people that no longer
serve us but are too afraid to change the status quo? I’ve reflected on many
people, including myself, as to the true value of these relationships and how
they could be holding us back.
If you imagine your environment to be a forest and your
relationships are trees. The more dominant characters create a canopy which
blocks out the sunshine and stifles the eco-system. When one of these mighty
trees fall, sunlight can nurture the forest floor and encourage growth of new
saplings, which otherwise would never had a chance to exist.
I appreciate that it can be a tough decision to let go of
situations and people that suppress us, but better alternatives could be
waiting to develop if only we gave them the space to grow.
