It hurts a little bit, every time I bare my soul. I feel the heaviness in my chest. There is a sort of vulnerability in blindly reaching out hands just to feel who might take them within their own. All so I might feel a little less alone.
For a time.
Dreams of rabbit may suggest feeling soft, docile, or childlike. Rabbit is often used as a sacrifice in dreams, which suggests the vulnerability we experience as we meet the pain of reality in the maturing process.

"This world is a realm of energy and action; no matter what you know or who you are-- no matter how many books you have read or what your talents-- only action brings potential to life. Philosophies impress and ideas abound, but words, no matter how elegant are cheap. It is easy to speak about commitment, courage, and love, but doing is understanding, and wisdom grows out of practice."
Consider that you can see less than 1% of the electromagnetic spectrum and hear less than 1% of the acoustic spectrum. As you read this, you are traveling at 220 km/sec across the galaxy. 90% of the cells in your body carry their own microbial DNA and are not “you.” The atoms in your body are 99.9999999999999999% empty space and none of them are the ones you were born with, but they all originated in the belly of a star. Human beings have 46 chromosomes, 2 less than the common potato.
The existence of the rainbow depends on the conical photoreceptors in your eyes; to animals without cones, the rainbow does not exist. So you don’t just look at a rainbow, you create it. This is pretty amazing, especially considering that all the beautiful colors you see represent less than 1% of the electromagnetic spectrum.

'She could have been a feral animal, out there in the dark.
White moths and leaves weaved throughout her hair, dirt-stained soles and palms.
Watching her, I got the funny feeling then that my sister wasn't entirely human...'
"The stars were the only omnipresent part of her existence, looming in the vague distance beyond the cold atmospheric rush. And even those brilliant, beaming bodies were temporary– they would eventually change, just as she would grow into different ideas of the same woman, across centuries, across millennia. When we was alone, she was reunited with the silence of her childhood. Standing at the window, she was desperately trying to find companionship with the cosmos. It was in this night air that she saw the shadows move in an unnatural way, shifting her mesmerized thoughts back into the present. She felt her isolation reverse without consent, and peered back into the abyss of a quiet home, an empty room with nothing but the fire light to guide her gaze."
