Hey Beautiful soul!
When you disclose to other people – whether the disclosure is something embarrassing, painful, humiliating, or desperate – when you admit fear, when you share pain, and most especially when you cry in front of someone else… when you do these things, you make yourself vulnerable. You allow other people to see you at “less than” whatever society – or your family or your friends – has deemed appropriate for people in your given situation. You allow people to get close. You allow for the possibility of rejection. You put it all out there and it screams, “This is who I am right now. It is not strong. It is not pretty. It is not easy to see. But it is exactly where I am right now, and it makes me me.”
And when you do that, the person you are disclosing it to has the option to walk away. And in giving people the choice to walk away from a pained and scarred and raw you, you made the bravest choice of all; you showed what I believe to be real courage.
Just because it hasn’t happened, doesn’t mean it won’t. A lot of things take time to mature, especially people.
May your goodness always increase
And your smiling face never cease :)
