Vulnerability

I just watched this TED video on Vulnerability by Brene Brown, a social science researcher story-teller. It was fascinating. It is the story of her research as a social worker into human connection and the impact that her findings had on her own life. I cannot do the video justice so you should watch it. However, I can tell you the potential benefits of watching the video will be:
  • An understanding of what drives us as humans
  • A possible new meaning or purpose for your life
  • An appreciation of what you need to do to improve your sense of deep personal and human connection with others.
  • An appreciation of what is needed for you to feel fulfilled and worthy
What I find relieving is how simple life really can be. All it seems to take to feel like a good person all the time is to be a good person, all the time. Easier said than done.
