The Property Lines of Your Soul
Why do some people feel perpetually exhausted by others' demands while simultaneously guilty for disappointing everyone? The answer lies in understanding boundaries-the invisible property lines that define where you end and others begin. Think of your life as a house: without clear boundaries, people wander in and out at will, rearranging your furniture, eating your food, and leaving their mess for you to clean. With boundaries, you decide who enters, what they can touch, and when it's time for them to leave. This isn't selfishness-it's stewardship. Your feelings, attitudes, behaviors, choices, values, limits, talents, thoughts, and capacity to love all exist within your boundaries. You're responsible for managing these treasures, not for carrying everyone else's burdens. When a neighbor's dog keeps digging up your garden, you don't feel guilty about building a fence. Yet many people spend their lives as emotional gardeners, tending everyone else's yards while their own gardens wither from neglect.
