When sensitivity feels like a burden #sensitivesouls #spiritualgrowth

Why do sensitive people replay everything in their head? So, some people might say because they're too self-conscious, they care too much what others think. And there may be truth to that, but I've spoken about this before. To me, sensitive people really means souls who are not fully acclimated into the embodiment experience. We're talking about your soul comes into this world and instead of adjusting to being in a body, it kind of feels out of place. It feels like it's homesick for its real home. And you may not have language for that if you weren't raised with a spiritual framework to have that perspective on it. You may not use those words, but it's this basic underlying feeling of being sort of out of place at all times. So, that's how I define sensitive people. A lot of these people, because of their spiritual sensitivity, have incredible powers of intuition, of pattern recognition, and almost like a spooky way many of them. A lot of times, they know things deeply that other people don't know. And that's also part of the sensitivity. They process things very intensely. They process their emotions intensely. They process stimuli intensely, which is also why it can be very exhausting to be such a sensitive soul. At the very same time that they are catching these tiny details that no one else catches, they can be completely oblivious to big, fat, obvious things that everyone else knows. It's ironic. Sensitive souls see things that other people don't see, but very often don't see what everyone else does see. And that's why very often sensitive souls rehash moments, especially social interactions, because their experience has taught them that they very often miss things. That they'll find out months or years later that, for instance, someone was offended by something they said and they were clueless about it. So, a lot of sensitive souls, and I include myself in this category, I can tell you from firsthand experience, we will go over things and sort of re-examine it and say, "Did I miss something?" Because I certainly know in the past I have missed things. There's a point where that's useful and you can catch things and correct them. Then there's a point where it sort of becomes obsessive and it becomes a waste of time and energy. And part of growth as a sensitive person is being able to be discerning and knowing where that cutoff point is.
