Fear of Vulnerability
Vulnerability is often seen as a weakness, something to be avoided at all costs. We fear the judgment of others and their opinions of us, which can make it difficult to let our guard down and be vulnerable. Society reinforces this fear, and we are taught from a young age to be strong, independent, and invulnerable. However, vulnerability is a natural and necessary part of the human experience, and by embracing it, we can build deeper connections with others and experience greater emotional growth.

The purpose of pain: An Introduction.
I was lying on my bed one night unable to sleep. I was tossing and turning, my mind working in overdrive with all the racing thoughts and my heart overfilled with emotions at 3 am, an infamously vulnerable and emotionally charged time of the night. I was contemplating life and all its trepidations when a very disturbing yet intriguing question arose in my mind; why am I always in pain? Now, I always try to make the most of things and live life to its fullest. And I do it while being good and considerate of other’s feelings. I try to be a good friend, son, brother and in some cases a role model. Then why do I have this crippling depression and paralyzing anxiety every moment I breathe. Why am I in such agonizing pain in every conscious moment of my existence.

When asked why I would put my ass through that (which, it wasn’t even bad or anything, I’ve definitely incurred worse damage from some good curry), I would chirp some inane comment akin to “just trying something new!” But I was trying for a piece of freedom. The decision to eat Taco Bell was oddly dramatic– a floundering attempt at inner reflection, and then a comeuppance with reality. A deep dive of the psyche using a tostada shell to keep the small discoveries together.
