To the Sensitive Ones

Do not be ashamed of your sensitivity,
it has brought you many riches.

You see what others cannot see,
you feel what others are ashamed to feel.

You are more open, less numb,
you haven’t closed your heart, despite of everything.

You are able to hold the most intense highs and darkest lows,
in your loving embrace.

And you know to that neither defines you, everything passes through,
you are a cosmic vessel.

Celebrate your sensitivity!
It has kept you flexible and open.

You have remained close to wonder,
and awareness burns brightly in you.

Don’t compare yourself to others,
don’t expect them to understand.

But teach them it’s okay to feel deeply,
it’s okay to not know, it’s okay to play on the raw edge of life.

Life may seem harder for you at times, and often you are close to overwhelmed,
but it’s harder still to repress your overwhelming gifts.

Sensitive Ones, bring some gentleness into this weary world!
Shine on, with courageous sensitivity!
You are the lightbearers!
