Samuel, i watched the Brene Brown most recent talk on courage on netflix. Her talk on vulnerability is putting the "playing victim" into perspective for me as a BS. but i would like to hear if i am incorrect regarding my applying it to the US. playing victim is not being vulnerable, omitting the "i will do what it takes" is not being vulnerable. constantly coming up with "but you did" is playing the victim. A "but" is saying you did X that to caused me to do Y. This keeps the BS in a state of stuck trying to trust the US.
