this weekend, i experienced my first vulnerability hangover. i remember hearing that phrase from dr. brene brown wondering what that might feel like. let's just say, i am no longer wondering. i took a risk, a leap, a jump. i rejected safe, fearful hiddenness and chose to risk. i woke up not in regret. i am so so so glad i took the leap, but moreso of "did i do that...say that... wow." it was an adrenaline rush in the moment to this already wholehearted one, but it definitely stepped it up to another level. there's this amazing, wonderful, incredible song called "i hope you dance" by lee ann womack. some of the lyrics include:
**********************************************************************
"...livin' might be takin' chances, but their worth takin' - love might be a mistake, but its worth makin'.... when you have the choice to sit it out or dance, dance"
**********************************************************************
.... oh how that song does something to my heart. amazing. incredible. i may now know what it feels like to have a vulnerability hangover, and it may be one of the scariest best things i have ever done.... but i'm so glad i did. no matter what the story may become... it was beautiful, amazing, incredible... i will always choose to live my life from the heart level. and that is what i chose to do when i chose to dance in conversation and take a risk. *smile*
