Some limitations are self-imposed or imposed on us by others. Some limitations are beyond our control. Power to those who can diminish or delete their limitations. Empathy to those who must accept and compensate for what they cannot do.
We are born with limitations. Much of our blueprint cannot be altered. Society imposes some limitations for the survival of the group. Religions add limitations by labeling some behaviors as sins of commission or omission. Each individual needs to decide which limitations to accept. We should develop empathy for the physical and mental limitations of others. We should not limit the rights of others in order to satisfy our own wishes.
No matter how well we have taken care of ourselves, we may begin to notice that our body and mind can't do want they used to. Others around us are also showing signs of aging. Again, we must learn to adapt and compensate.
A sand fence limits damage caused by wind, storms, and pedestrians so the dunes can continue to protect inland areas. We need to deal with what nature has given us and set limits to protect ourselves from dangerous behaviors and manipulations.
