Chapter 1 - The You That You Want To Change
Day 47 - Sensitivity
Those who are sensitive are often feel weak. Those who think themselves strong are often insensitive. Some are sensitive to themselves but insensitive to others. Some are sensitive to others but not to themselves. Those who are sensitive only to themselves often blame others.
Those who are only sensitive to others often end up feeling self pity. Some conclude it is better not to be sensitive at all because sensitivity brings pain, so they shut themselves off from others. But if you are not sensitive, you will lose all the finer things too intuition, beauty, and ecstasy of love.
This path and this knowledge make you both sensitive and strong. Often people who are insensitive do not recognize their insensitivity and those who are sensitive often do not recognise sensitivity is their strength.
Sensitivity is intuition, sensitivity is compassion, sensitivity is love. Sensitivity is real strength. Strength is calmness, endurance, silence, non-reactiveness, confidence, faith - and a smile. Be both sensitive and strong.
