'In or out of the box'

'In or out of the box’

I realize people can't get out of the box or often don't even know they're in one.  I might even be in my own box.  Maybe a better one, but still a box.  There are good and bad things in my box.  With this self awareness you understand other people and become patient because of this.  I was talking to a relative and became  very impatient with their rigidity.  Still, I had to realize he is trapped, marooned on his own island with no escape.  Humbly, maybe I am too.  When I am hurting, I wish I could escape.  Am I not trapped too?  We are all given parameters to work with and emerge from.  As my father would say, at least I am aware of it.
