Finding the fragile

The most vulnerable part of us. 

We protect it so fiercely. Often we do not even know the one thousand ways we have built walls of protection.

The fragile is maligned in a world that celebrates the strong.

Yet this soft tender aspect of our humanity is our powerhouse. 

Vulnerability hidden is vulnerability able to be attacked. 

Vulnerability unmasked and worn in simple humility removes the possibility of attack.

From our fragile softness arises our most authentic voice.
