The picture is Thai, my cat, choosing to take a nap in the paper even with his comfy bed nearby.

This got me thinking about what the need created within us to find a way to protect ourselves or to partially hide from something rather than finding the softer yet visible spot – physically or mentally.

Sure, there are times when we need to process something or to contemplate a situation and then it can be best to go within.

When are the times that you feel you can’t step out and be in the open?

Could it be when you question if you:

• Belong?
• Are Worthy?
• Know enough?
• Are Good Enough?
• Fear of Being Judged?
• Don’t Trust Others?
• Don’t Trust Yourself?
• Are you Afraid of Making a Mistake?
  
  

Remember, you can transform your perceptions and beliefs that impact your daily experiences and future possibilities.

Consider what is behind a need to hide or protect your brilliance and full capabilities. You can choose to be seen, to experience comfort and ease in your life.

After about 30 minutes, Thai moved over to his bed and took a long snooze. 

And, that is another invitation to be aware of how long you stay in the bag and allow yourself to take a new action.
