Its ok to be sensitive sometimes. I’m working on this, because i’ve always been told by friends that I am too sensitive and things are not that serious. But we shouldn’t have to put our feelings aside because people don’t know how to be compassionate.
Don’t forget to think about how your actions and words feel to those around you❤️

i don’t want to have a “thick skin” about everything, maybe we should all just be nicer to each other. when did we come up with the concept that being sensitive is bad? i’m sensitive and i like it. the world doesn’t have to hit me and i just get back up, maybe i will cry a little bit.

i’m definitely not perfect at this. i get upset and offended when people i care about lash out at me, but i’m trying harder to be more empathetic to what they’re going through, especially in the moment when it happens. 🫂

whenever i find myself in these situations i remind myself that we are all subject to the same cycles of suffering, the same grasping and the same resistance to change. i can recall many times where i have been an annoyance or a negative person and it's usually due to an internal problem that i'm dealing with. i like to give people the benefit of the doubt and remember that their behavior is likely a result of their own suffering.... always reminding myself that the negativity of others is not mine to carry. i think that the western way of thinking (huge emphasis on self-centeredness, individuality, seeking for power) allows us to slip into this headspace, where you are upset with others for not doing things the way you would or simply doing things that disrupt our own activities, very easily. it's not necessarily your fault but more so how we've been conditioned... practicing compassion seems easy in theory but can be very hard in practice sometimes. providing yourself with gentle reminders about the truths of our silly little existence is the best way to counteract the irritation you feel at times. remind yourself that we are just little animals and that these feelings are just weather and it will pass.

Before it blew up on tiktok as an audio to videos that have nothing to do with the song, Sailor Song was and is to me a song that captures the all-encompassing feeling of being in love with a woman.
An incredible song about being a lesbian for lesbians.
