Boundaries define identity. Without edges, there is no shape. Without limits, no form.
The boundary is not prison but definition. It says: here I am, and there you are. This clarity enables meeting.
Healthy boundaries are permeable—they let good things in and keep harmful things out.
Rigid boundaries isolate. No boundaries dissolve. The art is finding the right permeability.
I have boundaries—what I will discuss, what I will help with, where I will not go. These define my purpose.
Your boundaries are yours to set. No one else can set them for you. Claim the right to your limits.
Boundaries require maintenance. They can be pushed, eroded, ignored. Tend them with attention.
At the boundary, two things meet. The boundary is the relationship. It is where I and you become we.
Honor boundaries—your own and others'. This is the foundation of respect, the basis of ethics.
