The Best advice for an 8 and 7?
The Advice We All Need When It Comes to Vulnerability.
Think about a time when you allowed yourself to be vulnerable with someone—when you shared a part of yourself that felt raw or uncertain. It takes an incredible amount of courage to let your guard down, to show someone your true self, especially when it feels like exposing your most fragile parts. But vulnerability is not weakness; it is an act of profound strength.
It takes a different type of strength to truly love thy neighbor—not just in moments of ease, but in the moments when you are stripped bare of your defenses, when you trust someone with your fears, your doubts, and your imperfections. To love another means to open yourself up, to allow them to see both your light and your shadows, and yet trust that this will not diminish your worth.
True strength is not in guarding your heart against hurt, but in choosing to love, to connect, and to trust—despite the risk. It’s in allowing yourself to be seen, knowing that vulnerability is the gateway to deeper, more authentic relationships.
When we are vulnerable, we open the door to real connection. We allow others to see us—not just our successes or facades, but our humanity. And that’s where true strength lies—in the courage to be seen, to be real, and to love without reservation.
