Vulnerable...

When was the last time you made yourself vulnerable?

I've spent the last 6 months writing random bits of song ideas, sent one to someone whose opinion I think is important and now I can't look at their response ....argh!

Anyone been in a similar situation?

I regularly make myself vulnerable as part of my job and less frequently through my music. I used to feel concern about how it would be received but soon realised that there is real strength in vulnerability and I’ve learned to be more courageous as a result.

Ha cheeky fcuker!

Sent a couple of songs originally to my mate in Uruguay. First person to hear them...took about three weeks to come back to me and actually say they were good!

And now I've sent my firstborn (song) to someone whose opinion I actually care about.... and I can't look!

Might have to leave it til tommoz...

In Krispy cremes today for a box of 12 donuts, you think easy right? Well after you have the first 5 picked it gets tougher and tougher, the queue starts building, the pressure comes on, you just start panicking and ordering on 2s, it’s brutal and all you’re left with is half a box of glazed

I don't intentionally make myself vulnerable to anyone but Mr N. The last time I did was when I trusted a surgeon to put a titanium implant in my spine.

I sent some real world pictures i had taken for potential publication after some really good feedback. I thought i was jus ta snapper rather than someone who could take a decent picture that someone would want to buy. They were really quite harshly rejected. I was really down but a couple were bought by a third party and appeared in print which was a really big boost and a nice cash bonus!

Ach just crack on with it woman, what's the worst that can happen? They don't like it? So what, do something else.

I'm a performer and still get healthy nerves/stage fright. I've had my music slated in national magazines, you just have to roll with potential criticism when being creative.

Sink or swim, get on with it or live with regrets

This may not be understood by many here but my most severe vunerable feelings happened the first time I went out in public as a tranvestite. I was driving to a friends house who was taking me to my first club outing. I was fully fem dressed and felt as though every driver and pedestrian was looking at me on that journey. It was rush hour so lots of stop, start queues. I was hiding my face, not making eye contact with other drivers who pulled up alongside me. In fear of breaking down or having an accident or the police stopping me for some obscure reason. Really weird vulnerable feelings when I was a normally strong confident character.

That's a trip down memory lane but it lives with me to this day.

I can understand that. I wouldn't be as brave.

I think being on Fab can be quite a vulnerability fest for a lot of people, although it may well be a half decent (or indecent!) way to engage with those with similar interests...

Every time I go to the dentist !

I feel so vulnerable on the dentist's chair !

Especially when the Dentist tells Carol (his secretary) to cancel his next meet because he has diarrhea while he is having his bloody fingers in my mouth and John (his assistant) is hoovering my drooling !!!

Never ever intentionally let my barriers down. It’s just something I CAN’T do.

But I have a specific kind of migraine that affects my speech, my balance and my cognitive abilities. Working with the public, that leaves me feeling incredibly vulnerable when it comes on.

This week has been a massively vulnerable one. I’ve swung between pretty much every emotion I’m capable of.

Now I’m back to a laissez-faire meh approach. I’m not good at vulnerable. Luckily everyone who has had the misfortune to communicate with me during this up n down time has been fucking awesome.
