I chose the vulnerability card yesterday from DrSnit, and I was trying to think of what it means to me to be vulnerable. And this is what I came up with.I'm vulnerable every time I put my heart on the line and let someone in my life. When I open my heart to love another and be loved in return.
Instead of closing myself off from the hurt and pain of losing someone I love, I choose to continue to love every day. I'm not gonna run from love, I'm gonna embrace it. I choose to let it grow inside of me. Letting it consume every part of me.
Shutting myself off from the world would be so easy to do after losing someone I love, and after being mistreated by people I love. But I refuse to do that. That's not a way to live life. Closed off from people so I won't feel the pain of being rejected. So I won't feel the horrible pain of losing a loved one again.
I choose love. 'Cause at the end of the day, that's all anyone really wants. To know that they are loved. That someone somewhere loves them.
I'm vulnerable by loving.
As are we all. Truthfully written my love. I'm just glad you continue to love otherwise I might not have met you! So often is love a double-edged sword that we often fall upon. Truth is life wouldn't be worth living without it! <3
