“Vulnerable” Facets
Our current society has conditioned us
to present ourselves in a multitude of facets,
who we present on social media
may be different from at work,
from our account on a dating app,
from what we think others want to hear on a first date,
from a night out with childhood friends,
from a brunch with college friends,
from time with our families,
from time alone
We then allow ourselves,
or present ourselves,
to be perceived as being vulnerable
when in reality
we are merely revealing a facet
of who we are
in that moment,
or who we want to be,
but not our true selves
