The Balcony Pigeon Theory. Why we hate leaving our comfort zones (literally).

About eight pigeons grew up in my balcony, and one thing I noticed about them that was almost always common: once a pigeon grew big enough, it wouldn't want to leave the balcony. It would try its best to stay for as long as it could. Usually, there are two chicks, but one time, there was only a single egg that hatched. That particular pigeon didn't want to fly at all, even after it became mature enough. It's because just like those pigeons, our minds too try to find and stay in comfort whenever it can and however long it can. We gotta overcome this.

Do you remember the story from our Class 10 English chapter, 'His First Flight'? The young seagull thought his wings wouldn't support him. But ultimately, circumstances taught him that it was all just his mind limiting him he could indeed fly. You will find your wings too, just give yourself some time to adapt. I know it’s easier said than done, and I'm probably on the exact same page, but you know what? I think things always get figured out in the end.
