Have you ever been told you are way too sensitive? I have many times. I seem to have been stuck in that heavy energy. But nature can give us some clues to get us past that. I have always loved watching butterflies flying around, with what seems like no cares or worries. Light, random and free. It reminds me of the book I read when I was very small called ‘Seagull’ by Jonathan Livingstone. That book must have had a profound effect on me. Rather like the Stephen King book called ‘Fluke’ about human consciousness being stuck in a body.

Both of them are really looking at consciousness, and how we perceive life. And now I feel I have to ask you this question, because it is relevant to this. How many times have you been told that you are over sensitive? For me, it is countless. Or it can come in the form of ‘You overthink things’. ‘You look too deeply into things’. ‘You are over emotional’.

Its now looking more and more ridiculous to me that people can say these things. My intention for this life would by to float round like a butterfly, experiencing moment to moment with all the wonderful people, animals and plants this world has to offer. I would also love to fly high like a seagull, free and open to the next experience,

Does This World Seem Obnoxious To You?

But no. Since I can remember, I have been pulled into a world that seems alien and even obnoxious to me. I have rejected this world from a very early age. It have not taken on board the things that have been said about me, but carried on with my own exploration of my own consciousness. And I am so pleased that I did this.

If I hadn’t, I am sure I would be dead by now. I would have followed my school mates up into the city of London, taken advantage of the lifting of the Glass Stiegal act, and become a multi millionaire using the newly corrupted banking system, and probably died of a heart attack because of the stress. That was expected of me from the education I had.

Hanging Out With Other People Who Are Supposedly Too Sensitive Too

I went the other way and became a musician. Perfect. Hanging out with highly sensitive people. Making music all day and night, and loving every moment of it. It was when my business brain kicked in again, and I wanted to improve my position, I started mixing with the sharks, and then watched the whole thing implode as it started to do what the people were predicting. Pop will eat itself.

It certainly did. I moved away from music because it was becoming like a chore and a hassle. I was losing the feelings of being like a butterfly and a seagull.

Then I came back into what people call the real world. And then the conversations started going back to ‘You are over sensitive’ You overthink things’ blah, blah, blah.

Man Made Versus Nature

Everything I have talked about here has been man made, except consciousness, the butterfly and the seagull. Everything else has been constructed by us, in what some people call the matrix. And listening to the maniacs who run politics, they are the ones trying to hold onto the systems that we live under. Firstly, we should not be living under a system, we should be along side a system that we are all happy with.

Believe me, that would not take much. When highly sensitive people begin to take the journey inside, and explore the depths of their feelings and emotions, and wake up to their unique qualities, that is enough of a life. It seems to me that the matrix has been made up for people to control and coerse you into things you don’t really want to do.

Being Sensitive Is A Blessing

Being highly sensitive is a blessing, not a curse. But we have to do the internal work, and not let our ego or intellect rule what is happening inside us. Or let the mind run out of control when we come into conflict. To me, this took many years of training, but to find peace of mind is amazing. And then be able to find that peace of mind after a nasty incident is phenomenal.

Don’t let people get away with calling you highly sensitive. If you keep your grace with you at all times, you have a powerful enough brain, connected to your amazing nervous system that can respond to a comment like you are too sensitive and put it to bed. It is time we were heard in this crazy world. So be with your grace and express yourself. Our mother earth is crying out for us to speak up to bring part of her children, humanity, back into balance. We can do that easily if we try. But we have to do the work.
