I’m constantly on this search for the essence of who I am. Sometimes, it finds me and I can feel its presence. But if I try to grasp it, it slips away. If I try to separate it from the rest, it escapes. So elusive. Like the birth of a soul with no one to receive it, no shape to define it. Spilling everywhere, touching everything. Free.

“I used to dislike being sensitive. I thought it made me weak. But take away that single trait, and you take away the very essence of who I am. You take away my conscience, my ability to empathize, my intuition, my creativity, my deep appreciation for the little things, my vivid inner life, my deep awareness of others’ pain, and my passion for it all.”
