Learn Truth and Vulnerability

The calendar page for the January moon reminds us that to Learn Truth means a willingness to learn from the heart.  This requires a willingness to be vulnerable.  When we become willing to be vulnerable, things really do get easier, even though it might not seem that way in the beginning of this great experiment.
It is not a coincidence that the sense of touch is the place we begin  the Cycles of Truth.  Unless there is something amiss in the neurology of a newborn, the need for touch, for human contact determines survival, mental well being and physical and intellectual growth.  Our body never loses the need and desire for touch, but our minds may convince us that to be touched, physically, emotionally, energetically and/or spiritually is dangerous. Or at the least a sign of weakness.  Our minds will convince us that our best protection and smartest response is to avoid being vulnerable.  We grow up thinking it costs too much to be vulnerable, but really the opposite is true.  To not be vulnerable ends up costing us our health, opportunities for growth and pleasure, strong and reliable intuition.  It ends up costing us an ability to Learn Truth.  More tomorrow.

Self-Reflection: When I think about being more vulnerable, what do I think of?  What is my reaction to being more vulnerable?  Fear?  Possibility? Growth?
