HOSTAGE


They say we should never forget where we came from.  While that’s true in gauging the distance we’ve come with humility, there are those who are heavily invested in making sure we don’t stray very far from that place, from that history, from gaining enough distance between where we were and where we think we’d like to go.  

“Those” people are holding us hostage in a time and place that we’d like to move away from.  The kicker is that they know all the triggers, all the buttons to push, all the “who do you think you are’s” to throw in our face, to keep us glued.

Some of the worst offenders are those closest to us who don’t want to change the status quo.  

The single worst offender by far however, is the one that resides within us.
