Profound Vulnerability

June 20, 2012

Several years ago I attended a Christmas Eve church service where the female pastor (who was clearly a beginner) played Silent Night for the audience on her harp. I have never forgotten that moment, nor her profound vulnerability. The tenderness of it, risking our judgment and ridicule…

The educator Maxine Green said, “When we are most vulnerable, we are most alive. In our vulnerability is our power” and I have always loved that statement. Of course it would make sense, as well. There is something so beautiful about profound vulnerability.

May you find that place inside yourself.
