Again thank you

Thank you so much beautiful WordPress followers and fellow bloggers.  I just came back from my walk with Jasper and was so touched by the growing comments and connections here.   It is so important to find like minded people who are open and sensitive and its only those who have really known trauma themselves who can validate us (beyond therapists or those with the gift of inner empathy to reach beyond their selves to understand and be with us.)

I truly don’t know how I lived in a world of shut down people often trying to shut me down.  I came to think there was something wrong with me due to my high sensitivity.  Just to write that sets the inner critic up in a bit of a down play.  “There you go trying to imply you are so special due to high sensitivity”.  Yes, followers I will externalise what Mr A my critic says so you can get a glimpse.  There are a lot of others like me out there and its a relief to find a space here where we can connect because alone we cannot fully do this work of emotional reclamation and recovery.  I just wish we were closer so we could meet but maybe this is enough for now.

So remember beautiful people how precious you are to me and to the world.  Don’t ever be ashamed of your sensitivity or the full impact of your trauma.  Sensitivity is a gift and trauma hits us double hard. But somewhere deep inside a light still shines, so let it shine like a light in a dark world that so often goes deaf, dumb, numb and blind to what truly matters or hurts us and the planet.
