I never thought that being vulnerable could be a strength. Growing up, I always believed that vulnerability was a weakness that made me an easy target for ridicule and judgment.66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6bTPWnkY9

It wasn't until I became a player girl that I realized how wrong I was.66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3VM80mCXo

I had always been drawn to games that challenged me, games that pushed me out of my comfort zone and forced me to confront my fears.66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsi6GT9o2Z

But it wasn't until I started playing games that required me to be vulnerable that I truly began to understand the power of my own vulnerability.66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kmgX5HtDB

At first, I was hesitant. I didn't want to expose myself, to show my weaknesses to the world. But as I played, I began to see that vulnerability was not weakness, but strength. When I allowed myself to be vulnerable, I was able to connect with others in a deeper, more meaningful way.66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxGiNBH2kN

I was able to let go of my fears and insecurities and be truly present at the moment.66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyNEPjCg5I

It wasn't easy, of course. There were times when I wanted to retreat, to hide behind a mask of strength and invincibility. But as I continued to play, I realized that vulnerability was not a weakness to be feared, but a source of strength to be embraced.66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nHpu734Qs

Now, as I play, I do so with a newfound sense of confidence and courage. I no longer fear my vulnerabilities, but embrace them as a part of who I am. And in doing so, I have discovered a strength that I never knew I had. A strength that has made me a better player, and a better person.
