Vulnerability is not weakness. It’s true strength—if it’s genuine, not mere emotionalism.⁠
⁠
Usually when something difficult, awful, scary, cold, selfish, cruel, happens in our life our ego says, ⁠
⁠
“Push it away. Ignore it. Be quiet about it. Get away from it. Cling to pleasure.” ⁠
⁠
When really what we need is vulnerability and bravery and healing. ~ @waylonlewis
