Why exactly do we all fear vulnerability?  Admit it, sometimes you put on a face and pretend you are tougher than you feel inside.  We all have wiped a tear to avoid being noticed.  And, all of us have at least one secret that we avoid sharing with even our closest peeps. 

Vulnerable is one of the most amazing emotional states - because it bridges gaps.  When someone is vulnerable and they allow others in -  the result can be a connection that is strong.  If the result is not a strong connection, set a boundary and try, try again.  Every single person who is important to you was once a stranger and you had to build a relationship based on vulnerabilities. 

Vulnerable is the emotion which allows love to form. It is where trust is built. It constructs a bond that is mighty. It gives your life meaning.  Vulnerability generates loyalty and most importantly fosters growth. So why avoid it?Embrace it and let your real you shine.
