Anything in your life that’s acting as a security blanket is only smothering the person you were born to be.

About This Quote

A security blanket is something that is used to provide security or reassurance. It is something that you use to comfort yourself when the world doesn’t give you what you want. When you are born, you are not certain of who you are, but rather who your parents are. As you grow up, these characteristics will become clearer and your identity will be more certain.

However, sometimes people use a security blanket or a safety net to make themselves feel secure. This is because they do not believe they have the talent, skills, or talent to do what they need to do in order for them to be where they want to be. The real person within them is smothered by the security blanket, which goes against their true nature.
