A door swings both ways. In and Out. Egress and Ingress.
The question is about which way you want to go and sometimes that can be confusing depending on the angle you approach the door from.
I always look at the door (just as I look at the glass) as half open (or half full). It's the portal to a new opportunity. Yes, it's also the path leading from the past, but as I walk through the door I am not looking behind me, I am looking forward to the future.
Maybe that's why my life has been filled with excitement, anticipation and new experiences. The upside has been constant activity and no boredom, and the downside of all of that hype has been the absence of regular calm and relaxation. And that's why I believe all doors should swing both ways.
The future is always linked with the past. And the past always leads to the future. Excitement melts into relaxation and calm creates the energy for celebration.
Sometimes life can be a dizzying experience and feel like a revolving door that just goes 'round and 'round and 'round. But I prefer doors that simply swing back and forth, because life shouldn't be dizzying, it should be a balanced blend of calm and excitement.
We need a little bit of both.
