"The path of vulnerability is for the strongest and it is for the most humble...as we become more and more practiced in our vulnerability, our hearts expand and grow. Christ's instructions for being born again were clear. What he was talking about was that childlike quality of pure vulnerability. That is the strongest person, totally open to whatever comes." - Mark Sircus
