As a child, I was very sensitive -- taking things personally, feeling other's pain, crying or feeling sad if someone told me I did or said something wrong (no matter how trivial). I was always told I had to 'toughen up'. While I have grown thicker skin when it comes to criticism, personal offenses, etc., I am still sensitive to others pain, societal injustices, and just plain human suffering. So, coming across this post by L.R. Knost really hit home for me. Do you agree with her comment?

Have you ever had a relationship end like this?

Can you appreciate this statement, especially as we deplete our natural resources in the name of progress?

While I strive to 'live in the moment', some days are harder than others to do so. I'd love to come back as a dog in one of my reincarnations. Wouldn't you like to have the mind-set of a dog, even for a short period of time?
