LOVE MORE, SHADE LESS!
LOVE MORE, SHADE LESS!
If you are reading this blog and right away started judging my imperfect English, maybe this is not the blog to read for you. It took many years for me to start blogging. I been avoiding to blog the same way I have been avoiding the word “vulnerability”. One and only reason for avoiding both was …. simply fear of being judged.
Even-though in many different languages word "vulnerable" sounds similar, but as we are all unique, we all associate different feelings towards vournability.
For me it feels like almost walking the streets naked and feeling ashamed.
It’s so weird when we say, "only through hard times we grow as a person", but being vurlnable we do not? Then I read this book called : “ Braving the Wildness” written by Brene Brown; which was life changing for me.
It is my favorite book and it challenged everything I think, so I am sure you will be reading more about it in my future articles. One paragraph that changed my perspective on vulnerability was:
“True belonging is not passive. It's not the belonging that comes with just joining a group. It's not fitting in or pretending or selling out because it's safer. It's a practice that requires us to be vulnerable, get uncomfortable, and learn how to be present with people without sacrificing who we are. We want true belonging, but it takes tremendous courage to knowingly walk into hard moments.”
On this note LOVE MORE, SHADE LESS!
