Being Vulnerable

Resilience isn’t crafted through shielding oneself from the elements, it is created by being laid bare, exposed, enduring. It is tempered through embracing the truth of the moment and feeling all of the feelings, processing all of the thoughts, doing all of the things we need to do. It is not weakness, but strength, to expose ourselves to one other, to be vulnerable. Yes, we can get hurt, but we can also live.
