I think in life it’s important to have room to stretch.
I believe that experimenting and exploring are such a key part of life that without them your life becomes limited. It can be in small ways such as trying a new hairstyle or big ways like moving to another country for 6 months.
Sometimes, after a person has been limited for so long when they finally get room to stretch, they take it too far. They end up doing things that are risky and potentially unsafe. It’s like going straight for a back bend when you should have started with a lunge.
On the flipside, when you’re used to having space you’re much more considerate about how you choose to explore and much less likely to overdo it.
