But if you want love. Well that’s a different story. Love means naked, raw, honest, exposed, vulnerability. I hear people say, “I need to trust before I become vulnerable” and that is a horrible lie. The only person you need to trust in being vulnerable is you. Shame makes us worry about trust. Why would we be holding back anything if it weren’t for shame. Shame means we are not worthy of love, therefore, we can’t trust ourselves being open and natural and vulnerable. So we seek out people with the same ego issues and open up to them, only because they agree that we are victims.

Pen pals are gradually becoming more technology savvy. Days are gone when people used to write letter to their pen pals. The approach was very personal. People used to receive letters written on attractive stationery from their pen pals. Recipients would be so overjoyed when they saw a letter from their pen pals in the mailbox. It was a real treat. People share their thoughts, joys and sorrows with their pen pals through letters. But, with the introduction of Internet, handwritten letters have become quite an obsolete phenomenon.
