Being Vulnerable

Sep 23, 2011 17:39

How many of us can say that there is somebody else who knows the real you? I'm talking about the REAL deal, not the "you" that you portray to people at work, with friends or even at home. The real "you" that only you know when you are alone.

Have you ever wondered why you do certain things only when you're alone? This is not referring to bathing/toilet duties... this is about what we actually DO when we know nobody's watching. This, is the Real You.

Can it be safely concluded that Our True Character shows when nobody's watching?

Being Vulnerable, this is another thing that I have been thinking about. I've never showed my true vulnerability to anyone on this earth. I guess it's because from young, I've trained myself to be "tough" and never shed tears especially in front of my family. I detested to cry in her presence and the funny thing is, even when watching tear-jerkers on TV, i would never let her see my tears. Am I weird?

I think i have a fear of being vulnerable. And that is not good. I find that fears do not just leave you, they wait inside you like a volcano and erups when you are least defended. At the weakest moments, the eruption comes and you realised that you are not as strong as you think you are.
