It’s very revealing that you’re using the term shield. I think that what holds most people from really “being”’is the fear of being hurt, but no shield will ever allow feeling…
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. 🤗
Being vulnerable is a risk. But emotions are indispensable to feel alive; building walls keeps us safe from hurt but annihilate all emotions, not only pain….but I get your point.
Exactly!
The thing there is being open to feelings while being conscious of your worth no matter what people do or say towards you. Ultimately, when people are mean to you it’s not “you” who is diminished, but them.
Thank you!
I am really blessed to have found so many incredible persons like you who are on the same “thinking wave” as me and inspiring me every day! 🤗
Although difficult at times and even frowned upon to be “different”, it is the only way for me to stay true to myself and I believe there is strengths in diversity and the people who are different than ourselves. We can learn a lot if we learn to keep the ego in check. 😉
Thank you for your kind words. Hugs
Yes, it’s always difficult when we focus more on being accepted than on being happy. The two don’t always go together.
We are definitely all different, but we have many twin souls that relate to us. And it’s extremely refreshing when you find one!
Thank you for yours!

You’re welcome. I just realised earlier that I’m always chatting with this unknown B. but never see any of your posts, and then saw I wasn’t following you. Shameful. I’m saving the rest of your posts to read for when I’m bored, in need of good pepping up. You’re good at that btw or I’ll probably just end up loving them all, over the weekend. Also get prepared for novel-length comments on your posts 😉 I’m that person
Looks like we’re complementary… !
Can’t wait to read more of your writing! (Very straightforward and inspiring… exactly what I need to ignite the thinking machine… )
Keep being amazing, sister! 🤗😄
You can only make waves if you step out of the boat.

It’s true, if we shield ourselves away from the world we will never experience it
