Sensitive

My entire growing up years, my dad told me that I was too sensitive. He thought I got upset over really stupid things altogether too often.

Recently, however, I have realized that certain "undesireable" traits as a child, can be become very positive attributes in adults. I've seen a young man who could talk his way out of any trouble turn into a very succesful and honest salesman as an adult. An extremely stubborn young lady grow up into a beautiful woman with deep values, an absolute knowledge of her priorities, and never waivering faith. I believe that my "over-sensitivity" has lead me to a life of profound compassion for others.
