A Life of Virtue: An Introduction – A Life of Virtue: Philosophy as a Way of Life
The objective of A Life of Virtue Blog
The shell of my selfish egotism begins to crack What emerges is vulnerability, tenderness and openness - The possibilities for self-actualization I enter into a real, an authentic relationship, with the world I give my gift with gratitude, opening the gates to joy and to bliss The path to aliveness, the road to true love, presents itself The "I", the self, slowly vanishes as I join with all beings in the web of life

Being vulnerable isn’t easy but that can make it easier in ways that we had never fathomed.

Ah what I meant was it seems difficult and next to impossible to be vulnerable after having been hurt (perhaps) in the past and we do everything in our capacity to build walls around ourselves, protecting ourselves. Letting go of the protective layer seems like a Herculean task but once we begin to let go, to embrace life as a vulnerable person life opens up to us as well, a fact we wouldn’t have hitherto imagined.
