Scary to be vulnerable, to open your heart but, oh, the out of this world feeling as you savor the pleasure!

About This Quote

The concept of vulnerability is more prevalent than just the feeling it brings to the human psyche. The idea of vulnerability has become a buzzword in our society, but what exactly is it? Vulnerability is the act of opening up to someone else, the act of giving more than you receive, and the act of allowing someone to see your true character. It’s the act of putting yourself out there, no matter how you feel about it. Vulnerability can be scary for some people because they feel that they are not up to par or that they are too weak to open themselves up for others. However, vulnerability is not only an act of showing you care about another person; it’s also an act of giving yourself permission to be vulnerable with them.
