Q&A: On Vulnerability and Hurt Feelings…
Today I’m going to do my level best to answer a question from a reader, and I’m going to do it by telling part of my own story.
The question, in a nutshell, is about how to “keep” the vulnerability, the sensitivity, without feeling hurt all of the time.
First of all, remember that there are no mistakes, there is only human experience. We deny our vulnerability because we don’t want to hurt. We may try to develop a hard shell or put a wall up because we are attempting to avoid feeling hurt, being disappointed, heartbreak.
