This week, we continued on our This I Believe project. We transitioned from writing these essays to making the video. I have a little knowledge of video editing so that part isn't hard at all. Honestly, the hardest part of this project is putting myself out there. I like to think that I am a really open. But I do have a problem with being vulnerable. I hate being vulnerable and would much rather be confident in everything I do. With this project and the Social Excellence talk, I realized that being vulnerable doesn't mean showing weakness. Being vulnerable is showing the quieter side. It means showing the things that you aren't exactly proud of, but understand and accept because they make you you. This is exactly what my essay is about and I think through this project, I have learned more about vulnerability. I may not feel completely comfortable with being vulnerable, but isn't that the point of vulnerability? If we weren't afraid of showing the ugliness of ourselves, we wouldn't be human.
