WHAT MAKES YOU VULNERABLE MAKES YOU BEAUTIFUL - BRENE BROWN
One of my favorite quotes; "Vulnerability is the only authentic state. Being vulnerable means being open, for wounding, but also for pleasure. Being open to the wounds of life means also being open to the bounty and beauty"
After church yesterday, I got home thinking about so much, trust me my head was full with all sorts but something made me realize (once again) that I am who I am and I love it, despite the pain, hurt, disappointments, heartbreak etc. I still love me and would never change. So I went on snapchat and posted a few words that popped into my head (some can be seen below). I got an amazing response, apparently my words made like 5 people think deep and that's more than enough for me. So I decided to finish up by blogging about it. I hope it does make a difference in your life, I hope it makes you love yourself more and for those who put up a wall out of fear of being hurt, I pray it helps you bring down your guard and break those walls.
To be Vulnerable with Man creates room for manipulation, deceit, anger and hurt.
That's Life!
Being Vulnerable doesn't mean you are weak.
Yes, being vulnerable makes us (humans) receptive to hurt, pain, heartbreak and disappointment.
However, if you do not allow yourself be vulnerable, you risk losing the beautiful things in life.
You risk being who you really are, your authentic self. That equals to you not being human because to be human is to be IMPERFECT.
If you deny or put up a wall against being vulnerable, you create a situation whereby you cut yourself off life and all its opportunities, this is all done out of fear/denial and not strength.
To accept being vulnerable means you are strong and courageous.
Someone once said "For Vulnerability stands defiantly in the face of fear, accepting the uncertainty of possible attack or compromise."
Open up and embrace Vulnerability!!!!

PS; I said be VULNERABLE, not be STUPID in life..........
