"You were skinless. There was nothing between you and the world - you let everything in and you let everything show."
from, The World Before Her by Deborah Weisgall
Sometimes I feel skinless. It's exhausting. And exhilarating. And everything in between.

I think I understand what you're talking about. I feel like sometimes I should toughen up a little more - "develop a thicker skin," but then I feel like I'll miss the experiences - dull everything to just being in between. I don't want to be that cynical.
Exactly. Even if the experience hurts, it is so much more alive than cynicism.
