Embedded in vulnerability, is an honest, raw, bid for connection. So in my view, vulnerability is about intimacy trust & connection. We share our stories with people who earn the right to hear them.

"I am very morbid about my girly-ness. I always get called cute, and I hate it. I am not five. I do not want to be cute. I want to be a weird, scary, freaky chick. I would rather look like a dominatrix librarian than anything else."

Accept - then act. Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it. Always work with it, not against it. Make it your friend and ally, not your enemy.

The True Trayvon Martin

He didn’t eat pork because his father didn’t. Once his uncle fixed pork chops; they smelled so good he called them “beef chops" & ate 1. #Trayvon

He was passionate about aviation. #Trayvon

When he volunteered at a soup kitchen for the first time, he was astounded by the US hunger crisis. #Trayvon

He loved his little cousins’ birthday parties. Even as a teen, he wasn’t too cool for Chuck E. Cheese. #Trayvon

He was modest about saving his father from dying in a house fire. His father called him his best friend because of it. #Trayvon

Hoodies made *him* feel safe. Like so many teens (and adults), he wore them as a protective shell, a security garment. #Trayvon

He called his dad, “My ol’ boy." Lord, how he loved his dad. #Trayvon

When folks wanted to tease him, they said, “Boy, you too skinny to take a breath." And he’d just smile. #Trayvon

If he wanted to hang out with his cousins and they had chores, he helped so they could finish faster. #Trayvon

His uncle said they never had to ask him to do something twice. #Trayvon

At 17, he was still into BMX bikes. He could cat-walk wheelie. #Trayvon

The tattoo on his wrist read, “Sybrina." #Trayvon

The tattoo on his chest read, “Cora" — his grandmother’s name. #Trayvon

I’m going to stop here. But just claim one of these memories I tweeted. Carry part of this boy with you, write him on your heart. #Trayvon

Write the beautiful details of all the black children you meet on your heart. That’s where they’ll be safest. #Trayvon

I feel like this stuff is important. #Trayvon

All facts about Trayvon are from this Esquire article.

Even if you’re the kind of person who doesn’t believe that Zimmerman himself was racist, I don’t see how you can deny that the media portrayal of him as a thug was racist.

You can paint anyone as a thug if that’s what you are trying to do.

Time Lapse Study of the Day: 69-Year-Old Pitch Drop Experiment Comes to Fruition

In October 1944, physicists at Trinity College in Dublin began an experiment to measure the flow of tar pitch, a polymeric substance that appears solid at room temperature. Fast forward 69 years to last week, the drop was finally captured on camera for the first time ever.

'Bout damn time!

Because yes, I did in fact already know that this is a thing.

i wouldn’t want to be in anyone’s life who i didn’t positively affect. i wish some of the people who want to be in my life had this same concern.

It is easy, when you are young, to believe that what you desire is no less than what you deserve, to assume that if you want something badly enough, it is your God-given right to have it.
