The body is contained within a boundary, the skin.
It has to work within limitations.
We may develop our capacities to a certain extent.
They will eventually reach a peak, a plateau and then begin to ebb.
The ego , based as it is on the body, follows the same principle.
In working with them we need to work with awareness,
otherwise we attempt to breakthrough our limits
and end up causing grievous damage to our body and our psyche.
On the other hand if we work with awareness,
we would stretch up to our limits and stay there, honouring our limits.
Then the limits expand allowing us increased space to maneuver.
Greed is one of the reasons why we ignore our limits and suffer.

Hi Date
Thanks for your blog and comments on Honouring Boundaries. I am reminded of my YOGA lessons and how I have incrementally crossed my physical boundaries by honouring them.
There is more to read and learn here, thanks a lot!

You are most welcome.
Please note one point, if we honour the boundaries, they stretch to create more room for us. Then there is no need to cross them. we just play with them.
