\"\"My husband used to call me this: “precious flower<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

Why? Because I am delicate like a\u00a0flower, emotionally and beautiful at the same time. I am sensitive and that has really been\u00a0difficult for him to handle in our relationship. It is difficult for me to handle within myself!\u00a0I’m sure you must know people like me or perhaps you are a person like me: someone who feels things deeply,\u00a0cries for others’ pain, takes on others’ trials at times, is very compassionate and caring. It’s like a double-edged sword to be like this–one side is so beautiful and helpful and you\u00a0connect to people deeply, and the other side can be emotionally painful and tricky. In the\u00a0spiritual community they refer to people like this as ‘Empaths.’ High in empathy–good\u00a0thing! Low in emotional boundaries–bad thing! That is my work, always, good boundaries.\u00a0Going to college for 6 years for Psychology helped me to develop those, as did getting a\u00a0degree in Life Coaching. I yearn to be close to people, and then I deeply feel the discomfort of\u00a0their sorrow, grief, loneliness, neediness, etc. It is a tricky way to be in this world. But the\u00a0closeness and the connectedness I get to experience is worth the aches, I believe. It’s like a\u00a0gift to be able to help people and be there for them when others cannot.<\/p>\n

This was a very personal post today. I’m curious: What do\u00a0people call you? Are you able to accept all of who you are? This is also an expression of\u00a0Unconditional Self-Love<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Do you love all of who you are… because I hope you do!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
