The Highly Sensitive Mind

Kid daydreamingGrowing up with a Highly Sensitive Mind presented unique challenges, particularly in adapting to the structured environment of school. As the years passed, focusing on most subjects became increasingly difficult, leading me to drift off into my own world. Eventually, traditional teaching methods proved ineffective for me as my mind was elsewhere, navigating a different reality and heading for a harder lesson ahead.


Another Level? No, Another World!

Odd mind out

As already mentioned, Highly Sensitive Minds navigate a more complex landscape, perceiving subtle layers of reality that others might miss. This heightened sensitivity can lead to both exceptional insights and significant challenges, requiring careful management to harness their unique abilities without succumbing to overwhelming surges of stimuli.

For example, my mind frequently contemplates the nature of our Universe, questioning if it has an edge or if it’s truly boundless, contrary to scientific claims. I envision life as infinite potential, an endless and repeating molecular configuration akin to a High-Def Omnidirectional Screen that can display every possible arrangement of matter, light, and molecules. As I delve deeper into these thoughts, the resolution of my mental screen keeps increasing, much like the ever-advancing technology around us. “To what end does this go?” I often wonder.

High-Definition Omnidirectional Screen (360°) with Interactivity
In my mind, I perceive a vast display, encompassing all directions—North, South, East, West, Up, and Down—with myself always at the centre. As I focus on one direction, pixels enlarge, while those to the side diminish and fade away. Additionally, some of the pixels group together into self-sustaining objects that seem to have a mind of their own, moving independently across my screen, becoming characters just like me. Through a phenomenon known as Complex Life, I am surrounded by moving life forms—people and animals—that carry a concentration of pixels, influencing even more pixels around them. They also transform pixels into useful objects that appear full of life, animating across my screen.

However, not all pixels are welcome; some are overly interactive and controlling, prompting me to consider changing channels or even screens.

Unanswered Questions

How do all these pixels converge on my screen? And what should I do when dominant pixels or powerful characters demand my attention in a specific direction? Should I heed their guidance, or are they mere bugs on my screen to be swatted away, allowing me to maintain my free navigation in this endless movie of life?

These are just a few of the myriad questions that occupy my Highly Sensitive Mind daily. Embracing my unique perspective, I try my best to understand the complexities of my perception and find harmony in a world designed for and constructed by minds vastly different from my own.
