Sensitivity

I am a very emotional person. This is me accepting that about myself.

They always tell me stay strong, be happy, don't cry. People want to piece me back together like I'm broken shards of glass. I am not. I was never a whole; I didn't get broken. I am a jigsaw puzzle, rather. I was made in a thousand pieces in the first place. People are shocked when I cry just because my sister runs and jumps into my arms, or when the chords of a song are so beautiful that my dam breaks. They think I'm going through a rough patch or that I'm just hormonal. I am not broken. I was born sensitive. Its not a flaw that I have to fix and I do not have to be ashamed. A soft heart is a treasure in this sea of stone-cold people. I cherish the bliss. I revel in the agony.

I love this! I am a very sensitive person myself, I feel where you are coming from. I was definitely born sensitive and it is something we need more of in this world. There are to many cold hearted people and that is why the world is like it is, a mess. I believe that everyone should express themselves and not feel that they are to overly sensitive by doing so. I have been told that I am to sensitive and that I need to harden my heart. That will not happen. Thanks again for the writing!

Oops, I had a few typos. I'm not sure if you could understand what I was saying before I fixed them but thanks so much for reviewing.
