Sometimes my own scent is so strong I can taste it in the back of my mouth, not in an unpleasant way though because it's actually fairly light and floral-sweet so it just feels like a flower gardern in full bloom on a summer afternoon while you're sitting in the shade and enjoying herbal tea. To me my own scent is comforting and familiar and soothing and it's kind of a shame I can't use it to calm others in the same way it relaxes and eases my mind if that makes sense. Because I wish I could? Just use it to make everyone feel content and less stressed-out if that makes sense.
#must be the famed omega instincts. wanting to comfort and care for others with things like this#I mean that in the sense that I'm not big on child care or rearing#but I do find myself wanting to be present and comfort people with my presence if I can.#I'm not that good with words but I like to just sit quietly with friends who are going through stuff or listen to them if they share#because I hope that just being there will ease their mind a little and take off some stress#and since my own scent is successful in relaxing me I can't help but to wish that I could also use it to take care of others better#it'd be nice if I could make other people feel like they can just be transported into a peaceful stress-free flower garden#just by being nearby#but I'm not so sure it works as well on others as it does to me because#1. I can't control the scent myself and 2. I'm overly sensitive to scents due to a hereditary migraine tendency#(which is actually why I am so specific about my scent because so many perfumes etc can feel overwhelming and overly strong)
