Why

The existing Finitude, Love, and Continuance essay already connects wonder to ordinary care. The Existential Euphoria discussion sharpened a nearby human-scale distinction: being affectable is part of life, but vulnerability should not be confused with coerced exposure or manufactured precarity.

Changes

  • add a provisional section to src/pages/core/finitude-love-continuance.md;
  • distinguish existential vulnerability, chosen openness, and imposed vulnerability;
  • frame boundaries and refusal as possible supports for continued connection;
  • preserve distance, privacy, caution, numbness, and withdrawal as potentially protective responses;
  • add vulnerability and boundaries to the related threads.

No one is required to interpret loss or vulnerability as liberating.
