A Letter by Chiara

“Open to Vulnerability”

 

So scary, dark and uncertain can be the journey within myself. Flashes of lights here in there, surprises, good and bad at every corner.

The last 6 months have been hard, probably between the hardest. Realizing that my life is not as expected, I am, not as expected; and that is so difficult to accept. Too much uncertain around me, to not feel like a failure too many things I do not recognize I struggle to embrace.

Trying to not make too much noise when inside I am raging…

Why I can’t stand feeling vulnerable? Why so much fear to fully express myself? What am I protecting myself from?
Thorough therapy I am now learning to put my shield down, so much of me have been neglected that I want to reconquer. Embracing vulnerability has opened new doors within myself, it is like exploring uncharted waters, forgotten territories. I am finally on an adventure where uncertainty does not feel so painful… I am looking forward to see what else is in me to explore.
