I know classically, our culture has labeled vulnerability as a weakness.

That is why many of us might associate vulnerability with feelings of fear, uncertainty or shame.

We may have been taught not to allow ourselves to appear vulnerable (especially men in our society).

With vulnerability comes the possibility of rejection or failure, which can be scary.

Because of this, we may try to avoid being vulnerable as much as we can. While being vulnerable is often thought of as a sign of weakness, but a deeper look into this subject would make you realise it is actually a deeply important part of the human experience.

*So to my vulnerable folks...this is a glass raised in our honor 🥂. Enjoy!*
