“Boundaries keep you free! They do not rob you of your freedom.”

Boundary-something that indicates a border or limit

Without boundaries we are subjected to almost anything. Boundaries were created as a form of protection. When boundries are crossed that is when a person deals with a lot conflict. Boundaries must be set to have productive relationships. Boundaries protect us physically, mentally, emotionally, financially, and spiritually.

We have to establish these boundaries at the beginning of relationhships so we won’t feel violated in certain situations. Boundaries are needed in all relationships, between friends, parent and child, teacher and student, boyfriend and girlfriend, husband and wife, beautician and customer and so forth.

Most people look at boundaries as a hindrance, but without them we are subjected to any and everything. We have to first know our limits in order to communicate them to others. If people are not willing to accept those boundaries, then that is a sign that your interaction with them should be limited if they are not willing to compromise and set limits for the relationship.

So what are you willing to accept? What limits will you set with the people you come in contact with on a daily basis? Will you even set boundaries or subject yourself to anything that comes your way?
