Hi Open,

I have read this post many many times, but every time it gives an unique angle of life and realisation to explore. And what warms my heart more often is I am literally pulled to this site and the article that is most relevant to the moment.

I am literally dying for change. Deep down I feel I am more and my life need not be caged. But then, the relationships and the societal structure are entirely against the pull of my heart. They require me to bend and tow the line they have drawn. I literally feel I am suffocating, like dying a slow death. Somewhere, I fear the relationships ( of course very close ones). There are lot of 'what ifs'

My soul throbs, it kind of tells me authoritatively. It feels complete. Beyond any doubt. Actually, I feel I have only one choice at that moment, to follow suit :)

My struggle is of letting go. My own conditioning is not allowing me to redefine and let go of the un-serving relationships. How and where to stop such people and relationships is what I am struggling with.

I feel a certain sense of connectedness with you and the open hand community. It feels like home actually :) Thanks for helping always :)

May warmth of the soul light every path,

Janhavi
