Highly Senstive People
Is there a place in the city for Highly Sensitive People? The warriors who feel no pain, and can ignore their troubles, with a single-minded desire to achieve their goals are not privy to this council. These people, in short (HSP's), are deeply in-tune with their environment, and are more sensitive than others to everything from colours to smells to emotions. In an urban world, honking horns, busy competition, and constant movement can be so overwhelming for sensitive people they can go off the deep end. Are people who are depressed, anxious or affected by other mental health disorders simply too sensitive?
People with sensitivities must find ways to stay happy in an environment that doesn't always promote well-being at it's core. Hot dog stands at every corner, busy streets and unfriendly people. Perhaps my thoughts are simply the result of being overtired, too busy to enjoy my life, and could all be turned around if I just went and did something spontaneously?

ReplyDeleteHighly Sensitive? As Les Mclann said to Eddie Harris," Try to make it Real? Compare to What?" Some people are born as sensitive as a toilet seat. It's not their fault, Jesus said so. Love them all, man. Yes, there's a place called Commercial Drive, your new neighbourhood in 2 weeks...le chat
