The 12 Days of Reason — Feel Freely


Stop numbing yourself. ‘Numbing’ is any activity that you use to desensitize your feelings so that you don’t experience vulnerability or hurt.  But by numbing yourself to vulnerability, you also numb yourself to love, belonging, creativity and empathy.  Remember, love is scary.  Love is risky.  Love is unsafe.  Love isn’t for the faint of heart.  Love takes courage.  And most importantly, love and fear can’t coexist.  Love means giving someone the opportunity to break your heart, but trusting them not to.
