Public Rights for Vulnerability

Inspired by The Gift of Sensitivity

Read on my website / Reading time: 4 minutes

Disconnection from our emotions is not good or beneficial for anyone around us, and emotional processing must be embedded in any culture. It must become a common understanding that we could become vulnerable and need time for processing.

Time for inner work must not only be socially accepted but remunerated in such a way that people become hunters for emotional self-care.

I firmly believe that social acceptance of emotional vulnerability should be upheld and included in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It could sound like an article, “Everyone has the right for vulnerability following standard emotional processing and equal pay for it, which is very beneficial for adequate health and well-being of himself and his family and his community around.”

The best thing we could do for each other is take care of our emotional health.

In this case, your projections will not be placed for others, and you could see the world directly without clouds of the emotional veil.

However, when society rejects public emotional outbursts, valuable messages may exist.

First, emotional publicity is usually reflected in people becoming sorry and pitiful of others; this is precisely the opposite of what is needed for a person in the emotional abyss.

This is because we forget the true meaning of compassion, we lack knowledge about compassion, and we tend to judge instead of being compassionate.

Pity is when we see someone as inferior and try to help them be better because we feel sorry for who they are.

“Do-goodery” is not so good at all.

Sometimes, remembering who we are is painful but needed for crucial breakthroughs.

Imagine the whole universe working to unleash your potential. Yet, suddenly, your Mom pays your rent check (and you are in your 35th), your best friend works as a cry pillow, or your girlfriend assures you the world is full of toxic people where you have two wings behind, and you do nothing again. And again.

We must not forget that compassion has nothing to do with pity for somebody, feeling that somebody has no strength to deal with the situation.

This way, we put ourselves in a patronizing or savior position (and will eventually deal with the consequences of it in our own lives).

It took courage to be humble in the face of life forces and believe everyone is appropriately equipped to deal with any situation.

If you want to give a hand, offer it, but with a belief in the person, an inner wish for them to become free, and a sincere belief that they could take a gift from the situation.

Such internal support must be applied first to ourselves, starting with permission for emotional release.

The second good thing about emotional publicity is that unacceptance reminds us nobody is responsible for our inner emotional state.

You are probably very familiar with situations when we say, “She makes me crazy,” “He is impossible to stay with,” or “They are such and such.” These conversations spiral us down.  

If you think of blaming others in an emotionally charged moment, this is the most appropriate moment to put yourself first because our state is more important than how others are.

Such thoughts are a great reminder that we need to slow down and get work done, starting with the question, “What do I feel when he is impossible or she is behaving as crazy.”

It is the right moment to put yourself on a pedestal and stop hiding in thoughts about others. This is a moment to face the truth of what is happening inside you.

This work is sacred, inner, intimate, and social unacceptance of strong emotional releases reminds us that we can not be intimate with everybody else around us.

The last good thing is a reminder that energy connects us all, and emotional arousals influence the common energy field, which everybody, each at the personal level, is responsible for.

It is not that you are accepted only when you feel good.

The raw truth is that our ultimate responsibility works for our benefit and supports the joint energy field without attempting to lean on anybody with a total capacity.

We all need personal time in heavy moments, yet we can all deal with it.
