Building up your defenses Dear One, putting up a wall, is one way that you can try and protect yourself from the world, but you should know that is far from the best or most effective way to do so.
Cutting yourself off, hiding yourself away, indulging in suspicion, fear, doubt, anger, and defensiveness are all actions that will, above all else, only serve to weaken you over time. The more you indulge in them, the more they will wear you down, the worse you will feel, the more vulnerable you will be.
But love will build you up. Trust will empower you. Confidence will strengthen you. Positive, joyful, meaningful, connections that you enjoy will make you stronger, will build up your strength. The more you indulge in them up, the more powerful you will feel, the more powerful you will be.
If you want to protect yourself Dear One, open up, trust, make new connections, build up your confidence by joyfully engaging with the world.
If you really want to protect yourself Dear One, build bridges not walls.
