well I dont blame them, I understand why, but personally for me, I am not afraid of being vulnerable. if you ask the people that know or knew me, they would know how much of an open book I am, I like to share my thoughts, not afraid to tell what goes through my mind,
although sometimes my friends think its best to keep some things to myself, but I guess it's just one of my coping mechanism.
I am not afraid to share my stories, my emotions, my opinions and ideas, my love.
I can be as vulnerable I can be, as exposed, butt naked I can, but that does not make me weak, or any less capable of being dependent, in fact, to me, being vulnerable makes me tenacious and strong hearted. letting my guard down is not a weak spot for me.
and I dont expect people to be as vulnerable as how I am, I dont expect them to tell their stories or share their secrets, but what I do expect is not being lied too. I expect the truth, I expect willingness and I expect to be given the same energy I have and is willing to give.
I am well aware how vulnerability is petrifying and nerve wrecking but do not be a selfish prick.
how that person has been fully exposed to you yet you take that to your advantage, you take that person's honesty and unreserved emotions and turn it into your leverage.
it is undeniable that the consequences of being vulnerable is there and how it can leave a big impact to anyone.
what goes around comes around and I truly believe what you throw will be thrown back at you, thats just how life works, how the cosmic universe puts you in your place.
what im trying to share today is its okay to be vulnerable, if you feel like your vulnerability is an imperfection than you are so wrong my dear. its what makes us all human.
the right people will always, always appreciate you for who you are and cherish it. if they do not know how to appreciate you, then drop them sis we tryna be happy in 2019 and leave toxic relationships, that includes friends too. until next time my friends, stay hydrated!
