They say old age comes when we have nothing more to look forward to.
I know that not challenging myself and pushing my boundaries gets me stuck in ruts that seem to drain the life energy out of me, cooling down my soul to the point where I feel depressed.
So, I also know that I need to push myself just a little bit each day to get out of my comfort zone and try new things, heating up my soul once again and giving me that lifeforce. Talking to a stranger and making a friend is one good way for me to get out of my comfort zone so I try to do it each day when the timing feels right. My job for the cooling and heating store gets me talking to new people every day basically but I don’t count that as me pushing my boundaries because it is just work related idle chat I’m talking about when I am out on the streets and seeing people who might interest me to talk to. That little voice in my head is always trying to boss me around and tell me who I should and shouldn’t talk to and I am tired of listening to it. The HEPA filter salesman job does help me practice my communication skills with others so that does help me out in the long run when it comes time to talk to a stranger. I just want to be nice to people and be a friend because it feels good to have friends.
