>I don't like the term "hypersensitive" it sounds like a disease.
Hi Desi . . . Does it cause you distress or dis ease? then in some senses it is . . . >I like to talk of highly sensitive and high sensitivity. OK Sometimes we can be too sensitive for our own good Don't you think? >Has a much better sound to it. OK >However, (IMO) highly sensitive people are treated in an inferior way in >this society. Our particular talents are not valued, we are seen as weak >and often diagnosed with mental illnesses. Only because the norm is to >be less sensitive, more agressive and oriented on the external world. The two can be combined . . . >Highly sensitive people are often very gifted, artistic, intelligent and >have innate wisdom. Yet we often underachieve and are regarded as >inferior. Therefor we easily end up in a lower income scale than we >could have achieved if there was more space for us to educate ourselves >in a way that works for us, and more appreciation for what we have to offer. What are you offering? >And therefor we often end up in bad housing situations that are too >noisy and we get exposed to too many toxins. Because the problem of >poverty is, that one can have not enough influence over ones enviroment. >This is a bad situation, brought about by prejudice, lack of knowedge >and mere convention. >I think it is high time something changed here. >Emancipation appears to be nessesary to me. Wot ya gonna do - FreeFlow? >Because I DO intend to stand up for myself and other highly sensitive >people. >This is a matter that needs emancipation. >I made a choise to do this, years ago. And . . ? >You know, it strikes me how even, we sensitive people amongst each >other, often think of our qualities in terms of disease, complaining and >needing help and good advice in coping. I think we should stop that and >be aware that we stand up for qualities, for strenght, being gifted and >having inner wisdom. OK >And our needs, to be able to develop these qualities, so that we can be >of better service to this world. >Needs like a wholesome enviroment to live in, enough free space in >school and work situations to experiment and explore and come up with >original ideas. Essential, basic needs like this. How? >Yet I would like some support, of other sensitive people, who know what >I am talking about. >Not so much for me personally, though it would help. >But most of all for many generations to come. > >Love, >Desi You are all talk Desi and talk is cheap How can we help?
