Thinking outside the box

[Kathi]

Do you ever think outside the box?

Only really started doing that about three years ago. Up to that time, I was pretty religious, and didn't even know I had built a box to keep Jesus in.

I'd give a huge example of thinking outside the box by posting a link to last Sunday's sermon..... but I'm not sure too many people could handle it.

It does not have to be a religious issue.It is creative thinking.Something that would not be the usual move to make.

I threw the box away.

Anyone who knows me knows my big problem is staying inside the box. Even as a child I was the one who could never color inside the lines.

Did they not give you scissors either?

That was me. Not even the little plasticy ones with blunt points.

Try to. If I just stay inside my own way of thinking, I'd never learn anything.

I'm sorry.I am thinking they thought you would run with them.

No apologies necessary. I think we both know we were both joking.

You guys had a box!? All I had was a piece of flat cardboard in the shape of a cross with dotted lines on them. :wink

[Christ_Ian]

Thank you rthom7, it's a simple saying with so much meaning.

I exploded the box! I think so far outside the box that it angers people, lol. :yes

while I was joking,, in reality we all do create our limits In that how we perceive ourselves. if I think I cant do something , I may not even try. this is different then realizing one doesn't have a gift for that and finding one is gifted in another area and works in that gift.

You're right brother. We create our own boxes. Like Yoda said, there is no try, we merely choose to do something or not to do it.
