#bevulnerable

Jamie Oliveira, Erosion

Learning to let myself be vulnerable with situations I am going through, by giving myself 5 minutes to feel emotional and then time to get back and focus on my goals. It's definitely not an easy task, but something I am working on with whatever life throws at me. Thank you to the people in my life who have listened without judgement and helped me through each situation. I appreciate you and love you so much! #learningtoletgo #letgo #bevulnerable #bevulnerableandcourageous #lovemypeople #nojudgement (at Las Vegas, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkPZi0QLxoD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Have you awakened to your true potential, or are you being lead unconsciously by your programming — acting weak and helpless and expecting others to be emotionally strong for you? How can you say that you have strength and courage if you stand there in your cold armor and close your eyes to the pain in her heart when she comes to you with tears in her eyes? Real strength comes from being emotionally strong enough to face your pain and overcome your fear of being vulnerable. Hiding behind your anger isn't real courage, it's a "fight or flight response" that creates a temporary adrenaline rush that makes you feel stronger so you can protect yourself from anything that you think is trying to hurt you. Directing anger at a loved one only ends up causing more fear and pushing love away. AN AWAKENED MAN DOESN'T REACT WITH FEAR, HE RESPONDS WITH LOVE. He is willing to be vulnerable, willing to risk being hurt because his heart, his love, is stronger than his fear of pain. He knows that it is only by learning to connect to his own feelings that he can connect to hers. He knows that it is only by feeling empathy that he will feel her pain in his heart and be moved to protect her, understand her and support her. An awakened man understands her vulnerability because he feels his own and he can't bear the thought that she would ever have to feel hurt, afraid or alone. A conscious man doesn't live in the dreamlike state of the false reality of his ego, or try to manipulate love, but he chooses to love from the strength and courage of his heart that knows pain and has overcome it. -Joel Clemons • Love, Life & Relationship Coach @the.gentleman.wolf (Although directed towards men, this information applies to both people in the relationship) Repost - @the.gentleman.wolf by @get_regrammer • Beautiful photo by: Ang McCabe @myrtleandmossphotography #bevulnerable #dontsettle #empoweringothers #womenempower #growthmindset #uniquelyyou #purposefullife #alwaysbelearning #liveonpurpose #createalifeyoulove #createthelifeyouwant #empoweryourself #createthelifeyoulove #doitscared #beyourbestself #embracechange #taketheleap #encourageyourself #createyourlife #getoutofyourownway #bey (at Pembroke Pines, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeSbYHAujOe/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Okay time you get a little vulnerable. I have some strengths that I am proud of I am Loyal and strong. I'm organized, helpful to others and have good leadership skills. I have my weaknesses too. I’m a perfectionist so this causes a lot anxiety. I have a hard time admitting I'm wrong. I don’t know when to ask for help or take some me time. Knowing my weaknesses and constantly working on them is where I grow. Let yourself be a little uncomfortable and I promise you will grow as a person. Let’s be vulnerable together what are your strengths and weaknesses? #loveyourself #bevulnerable #weaknesses #confidence #alwaysgrowning (at Surprise, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQCJhOSndyp/?utm_medium=tumblr

This day has been a microcosm or fractal of the many possibilities of this life. I woke up on vacation and grateful to see 44, then ran into...well, a bit of rain is falling in my life, too. The response I choose to it all is gratitude. I’m grateful. I I arrived to the LOOK of it a bit late, then got over that rather quickly to settle my focus on how this life I’m leading FEELS. How do I feel? How do I affect you? Ever in progress, I can only say that in any of my “foolishment” 😉 I hope to have the opportunity to see it, correct and move differently, to grow past my fears to be less closed and more generous with anything I can offer worth another soul’s finite time here. I’ve been many things not worth mentioning, yet full of lessons. I hope to be much more that benefits someone beyond myself. Someone loved me before I became, y’all. When you grab hold to that...the loving grasp of your parents, friends, family, ancestors and beyond...there’s no way you can fail to feel that, no way your eyes don’t sweat just a little 😉. I’ve been here long enough to witness those who love me warn me to guard my heart and be wary, then transition to see the growth of the same beloved guideposts apologize to me for that and gently push me towards being less fearful of any vulnerability and cognizant that my fully realized strength lies in being more open and of the energy that created me. It’s daily work. I love you known or yet to know and family...I’m so damn grateful to be here. Let it rain. #thisis44 #theynamedmeLioness #bestrong #bevulnerable #behonest #gratitude #thisenergy #thankyou (at Newark, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP3x_7Al0xl/?utm_medium=tumblr
