What would you do as a very sensitive being on earth?

[Sacred Fool]

Personally, I'm not overly sensitive to life on this planet to the extent that I have to plan how to protect myself or avoid things.  But maybe that's because I've adjusted my lifestyle to  mainly avoid disharmonious stuff.  I've live without a television for most of my life, for example.

The following Q'uo passage might be of some small use.  It does not discuss sensitivity, but the relationship between the analytical and intuitive elements of the mind.  Perhaps if one looks at it in these terms and thinks about nurturing the intuitive side of self, the problems of sensitivity could lessen somewhat?

Do not see the mind that is critical and the mind that intuits as two sides of a coin or two separate things. See rather, to use our favorite image, that portion of the tree which is above the ground, which blossoms and rocks in the breeze of summer, and stands naked and proud against the winter cold as the conscious mind, in intimate contact with the illusion, able to flower, blossom and expand, and able also to hunch the back, stiffen the self, and be protective against difficult influences. See the intuitive mind as a great underground system of the roots of this same living tree. In winter and in summer alike, they are in contact with the Creator, drinking in nourishment from earth and water, storing, nurturing and keeping watch over the life of that visible tree which nods above the ground. There are far more roots to the mind than there are visible trunks and branches, and the ends of the roots lies in the center of the Sun. Thus, the deeper mind has the opportunity to contact intelligent infinity itself, eternity and everness.

How precious is the entire being, the entire consciousness that you call the mind and that is truly yourself. May you see it in a loving and holistic way. May you glory in your branches, in your thoughts, in your ramifications, in your distinctions, and in your conclusions as you go onward from conclusion to conclusion. But may your faith be in the system of roots that links you to eternity, and may your will be more and more to place the tree above ground in the service of that greater consciousness which lies within the nurturing darkness of earth and water and, finally, fire.
