There can be no vulnerability without risk; there can be no community without vulnerability; there can be no peace, and ultimately no life, without community.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Vulnerability is basically uncertainty, risk, and emotional exposure.
There can be no security where there is fear.
When we were children, we used to think that when we were grown-up we would no longer be vulnerable. But to grow up is to accept vulnerability... To be alive is to be vulnerable.
To live without risk for me would be tantamount to death.
Vulnerability is not weakness. And that myth is profoundly dangerous.
I don't think anyone can walk through the world in a state of vulnerability all the time, can they?
Vulnerability is the birthplace of connection and the path to the feeling of worthiness. If it doesn't feel vulnerable, the sharing is probably not constructive.
Fear nothing but what thy industry may prevent; be confident of nothing but what fortune cannot defeat; it is no less folly to fear what is impossible to be avoided than to be secure when there is a possibility to be deprived.
Fear cannot be without hope nor hope without fear.
There is no security on this earth; there is only opportunity.
