I say confines, because a comfort zone is a prison of sorts. When you are in prison, you are limited in what you are able to do.

I see it the same way, a self-imposed prison with bars of culture, religion, society and whoever else's expectations we try to live by.

Fear of judgement, not being accepted, rejected, ridiculed... the list goes on but, all fears lead back to the one point.

Thanks, I enjoyed reading this :)
