If someone asked you what vulnerability
means, what would your answer be?

Perhaps you’d rattle off the dictionary
definition, and remind them that vulnerability
is the quality or state of being exposed to the
possibility of being attacked or harmed, either
physically or emotionally.

Perhaps.

​Or maybe you’d tell them something else.

Maybe you’d say, “vulnerability is being able
to say, “no, I am not ok” right now, but that
doesn’t mean that I won’t be ok tomorrow.”

Maybe you’d say, “vulnerability is letting the
tears fall freely when my heart feels as if it’s
about to burst, and there seems to be a waterfall
coming out of my eye sockets.”

Maybe you’d say, “vulnerability is being able
to say, I don’t know. I don’t know where to go,
I don’t know what, and I don’t know the
answer to this question or the solution to this
problem — and I need help.”

Maybe

If someone asked you what vulnerability
means, what would your answer be?

Perhaps you’d tell them, “vulnerability is being
comfortable with being human.”
