Vulnerability is not a weakness, a passing indisposition, or
something we can arrange to do without, vulnerability is not a choice,
vulnerability is the underlying, ever present and abiding undercurrent of our
natural state. To run from vulnerability is to run from the essence of our
nature, the attempt to be invulnerable is the vain attempt to become something
we are not and most especially, to close off our understanding of the grief of
others.
From Consolations: The Solace,
Nourishment and Underlying Meaning of Everyday Words by David Whyte
