How much of our personal stories should we share, and why? When a friend called me courageous for writing openly about my husband's illness, it prompted some unexpected questions. When does sharing create connection, and when does it become self-indulgent? Reflecting on a memorable conversation years ago, I explore the courage of vulnerability and the importance of discernment. Perhaps the greatest gift of telling our stories isn't being seen as brave, but helping one another feel a little less alone.
