I like being highly sensitive because I enjoy watching
people and gathering hunches about them.Observing the minute changes of expression on their face and the shifts
in body language.I appreciate the
beauty of each person struggling to find their place.I enjoy being able to deeply sense a person's
intention and follow the nuances of their inner process.I enjoy quiet and stillness and listening to
my own inner voice.I enjoy the thousand
myriad subtleties that when woven together create our world and our days.I enjoy watching a cat prepare to
pounce.I enjoy watching a dog
sleep.
When you are invested in and enjoy subtle phenomena, the
world is always new and interesting.
Those are a few of the things that make me love being highly
sensitive.Being Highly Sensitive comes
with a long list of possible positive attributes.Many HSP's
are responsible, loyal, creative, intuitive, have a rich inner life, appreciate
beauty, and feel things deeply.Many HSP's are spiritual, artistic and humanitarian;
caring about others, the environment and society.On a practical note many HSP's are better at spotting errors and avoiding
making errors, are especially good at tasks requiring vigilance, accuracy and
speed and the detection of minor differences and are highly conscientious(these last three practical aspects I quote
from Elaine Aron in her book The Highly Sensitive Person)
