* vulnerability

there's a dance between self-disclosure & vulnerability, as humans seek to know and to be known. with a pet, the dance is more one-sided: we know them, but they don't know us.

as we give more and more and more and More and MORE (did he say 'more'?) of our information to family, friends, machines and algorithms, we expose ourselves: our weaknesses.

there's power in knowledge & intelligence. 
be careful, aware.

it may also help to become less attached to things like reputation, perceived status and even identity. as a present-centered consciousness, we don't (really) know anything outside of the ever-present Now.  

there's a connection (in vulnerability). it is mutually seductive. 

be careful, aware.
