Limits

I'm not sure if I can express these thoughts in English, or even in words (that's a different issue)
... but I'm gonna give it a try.

I've been thinking lately on different mind sets different people from different places have.
How back home at school you had the cool kids, and the "freaks" and the geeks and the party people and scouts people and so on - I suppose like in any school where people group up - but also, everyone had some sort of a similar socio-economic mind set, national - Israeli - Jewish mind set.
When you meet new people, with different life styles than yours, you somehow (I feel) expand the possibilities (and limits) of your own mind set.
If you live in a society that has set groups of people you will most probably fall somewhere around these groups, between them, in that range... and when you meet people who value completely different things, who come from completely different backgrounds, with which you develop a completely different relationship under extreme circumstances - suddenly you look back at your life and you think - there are so many more perspectives from which I could look at things!
The limits on what you do and how you behave are mostly in your mind. Who said you have to live your life in a certain way? Just because people tend to do so? go to university or build a family or earn a lot of money or have a nice house or eat healthy...?

When you meet people who do not care about the pre-conditionig or limits that you have, I think - suddenly you realize these existed only in your mind. That there are always -more- options in life.. and you keep discovering them.

I hope this came across... properly.
Dunno what more to say.
