There has been a lot of emotional isolationism that exists where people are afraid to express their true feelings and emotions. At times, it can be easy to be a clam with his shell drawn tight being fearful to let it open.

At times, it can be hard to take the risks that are needed for this to happen, but life can be that much more rewarding in the end.
