Sensitive & Susceptible!

To be sensitive in this world is both a blessing and a curse. Sometimes I hate myself for being too sensitive, & sometimes I don't want to lose this version of me. I mean of course it's bad to feel deeply, everything and anything around you. An unknown person's death can trigger you, a person's tears can trigger you, and even a person's words can cause so much hurt. I tend to see only the best in people. Yes, it's a hard world to be sensitive to, yet I wish not to change. Crying too much can be bad, but keeping it within and hurting is worse. Yes, I can trust a person too much, no matter how bad that person was to me, I can still end up going back to that bad mess. I end up forgiving everyone way too much but I end up in trouble again and then comes this - detachment. A sort of subtraction, distancing from that person for a good cause. That's the only thing I can do for my welfare. I don't when to change my sensitive personality for everyone, rather I'm gonna learn how to thrive in it beautifully & I hope I succeed. And the only advice I give to myself is just don't trust anybody way too much!
