own your sensitivity
I've been feeling particularly sensitive over the past week. You? And I'm really letting myself feel all the feels. You? I have always been a highly sensitive person but I didn't always let myself own that sensitivity. I tried to cover it up, or hide behind other things because our culture didn't support it positively. Culture taught me that emotions were weak, and if we hid them, we were strong. But I learned that owning my sensitivity is one of the most powerful things I can do. That stripping away the layers of cultural conformity and showing up authentically is real courage. I've always naturally been a bit of a rebel, but not always in an obvious way. I have many times strayed from the norm, found my own way and needed a large amount of freedom (hello Aquarius moon). And at times that felt lonely and confusing. But I learned that my sensitivity can heal, is a source of safety for others, and one of my greatest gifts. Lets choose to meet each other right where we are. Share our humanness with one another. And teach our children that the bravest thing we can ever do is be true to ourselves. Ill meet you there. enormous heartfelt hug, alexis agoddessmama
