LIFE IS LIKE A GOOD FENCE

Fences make good neighbours. So we are told. Keeps pets in and others out. In our lives, we all can put up fences around us. Sharing with others what is important, but keeping areas of our lives private is good too. A fence allows a boundary between one thing and another. " I do what I want and you do what you want." A gate can allow trusted people into your life. It can be open, shut or shut and locked. Fences can be decorative, low or high, chain link or even have sensors that can shock others if they intrude. Some are stronger than others. Wooden ones can rot over time and even get blown down in a strong wind storm. But like life, fixed and made new again. Country drives reveal one barn board fences. Some communities are gated with expensive iron fences with a guard. A fence can determine social class too. There must be one around all pools for safety. Look in your area and determine how many different fences exist. Then look at yourself, what kind of fence do you use to protect yourself?
