Veracious Vulnerability.

This week's assignment feels a whole a lot deeper than previous assignments. Side note: This woman is awesome and hilarious. (1) Sometimes [and this is a completely odd remark] I feel that I'm not 'talented' enough. I feel like I could be doing so much more or see other people do their thing and wish they I could do the same. Vulnerability to me is not being able to stand up for yourself in a difficult or situation, or any situation for that matter. It's letting things happen that you wouldn't normally let happen if you weren't under pressure. 
I personally struggle with vulnerability in that I'm a people pleaser in the leading position. I want to make everyone happy even if causes a slight downfall to my personal being or the group as a whole. I don't want people angry at me or feeling uncomfortable. 
Although the situation varies, I typically tell myself that everything can be conquered or overcome. I keep in mind Philippians 4:13 so I'm constantly reminded that through Christ, I can do all things.

    It's important to remember that it is impossible to keep everyone happy all the time. Just do your best, that's all that can be asked of you.

    By the way, I love how you incorporate pictures into your blog. Brilliant.

    I'm also in music so I understand the feeling of not being talented enough. I think music is a place where vulnarabilty is really present, because there are so many talented musicians that are really good at what they do. For me, I just try and remind myself that music can't always just be something that comes naturally, you also have to work at it. With work you become a better musician which will cause you to feel talented.
