Reading this, I kept thinking that vulnerability isn’t just something we lost, it’s something we no longer know how to metabolize.

We built layers of insulation not only to survive nature, but to avoid the responsibility that sensitivity demands. Feeling requires response, not just awareness.

What struck me most is the idea of vulnerability as a feedback system. If that’s true, then numbing ourselves isn’t neutral: it actively distorts the signal.

I’m curious: do you think modern progress failed because it erased vulnerability, or because it reintroduced it without teaching us how to listen?
