Insight on Vulnerability

Text from above:

Insightful though of the day:

Acting like you are stronger then you feel all the time, can be a sure way to feel alone. Letting yourself be vulnerable at times when you need too, can open you up to connection and understanding. 

 

I've been feeling quite philosophical lately and have come to realize that while strength is valuable, it can sometimes become a barrier we create to distance ourselves from others. 

This is sometimes necessitated in some circumstances to avoid the pain and disappointment others might cause. Though as a result, we end up trying to handle everything on our own.

 Vulnerability of how one feels can be a strength and can invite the right kind of people into your life, where you don't always have to be strong all the time.
