I absolutely loved the topic. This is a video on how being vulnerable can be your strength.

Well was checking out a few quotes on good reads when I found this one, which I could very well connect to the video in the link.
It says, "Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you feel so vulnerable. It opens your chest and opens up your heart and it means someone can get inside you and mess you up".
No doubt we all want to be loved, taken care of but we dont want to be vulnerable. We fabricate. We are obsessed with perfectionism. How horrible is it to let the other person know I cant do this or that? Well, all I want to do is to create a good impression.In all these entangled stuff, are the impressions we are creating rebounding and reshaping us? Are we really happy being what we are not, just because its considered the norm. Are we putting on a facade because otherwise we would be considered a failure as per the contemporary standards?
Somewhere down the line we are giving up the less travelled path and choosing the well treaded path.
We fear to soar to the skies that were meant for us, the skies which were limitless.
We fear to open our hearts and and show that we too have a can worms in there because we fear the other person may not like it. But remember if somebody cannot take you with your flaws, and leaves, good for you , your being yourself is helping you filter out the people you never want to be with.
But there is no doubt that one fine day, you will come across a lot of people with their own can of worms and who will be willingly showcasing it. Life would be secure then cause you will have the freedom to be yourself and you will live with the knowledge that are loved the way you are, minus fabrication.
So what are you waiting for go for it, FLAUNT YOUR FLAWS.
