This idea of a 'comfort zone', is it a good thing or a bad thing?  My first thought is that 'comfort' can't be bad, but then the very cliche was coined to define a state of mind (or body) that actually confines us or restricts us from venturing outside to something that might be just as 'comforting' or even better for us.  I started to see that my 'narrowing of focus' over many years might just be limiting me as much as it is helping me.  Do I need to be ready for something outside the zone, or should I look at ways to broaden my perspective?  I didn't see this at all over the past decades.  I didn't have the time.  And as I was able to 'narrow my focus' it seemed like a real good idea.  In fact, I know that it was a real good idea to mature in my goals and my dreams.  But maybe now is a time for readjustment.  After all,  if I have been 'praying' to know His will for me all of these years had I not better be ready to know it if it is something outside of my 'comfort zone'?  Just thinking that way makes me feel a bit uncomfortable.  Perhaps that is a sign.    Maybe I am just thinking randomly, but perhaps I am feeling some kind of a premonition.  What might the future hold for me (us)?
