Living inside a self-imposed bubble may provide a sense of protection and comfort. We may perceive danger outside, so the stronger we make the wall, the safer we will feel.
Our bubble may consist of layers of insulation created by our parents, by our opinions, and by our emotions. Sometimes the wall becomes so think, we can't see out. We seal ourselves inside to provide an environment for the life we want.
Without any input from outside, the inside can become stale, imagination may be stifled, and the view of reality can get distorted. As we influence others to reside in our bubble, we may feel safety in numbers.
No matter how much we wish to protect ourselves from perceived dangers, other ideas and events invade our comfort zone and force us to realize that our "facts" are just our opinions. Shock and disillusionment may follow as the bubble pops. You will survive and perhaps gain a clearer view of reality.
