Sensitivity


"It is not death, or the manner in which the death is brought about, that weights most; it is the living of a life. For a deeply sensitive man of our own class and standing, life is often made difficult by the commonness, the coarseness, the vulgarity of much that confronts us. A sensitive man suffers under unpleasant influences playing upon him. but a great love for humanity, the keeping aflame within ourselves of great compassion for the suffering of others, and a strong determination to help and be an example of strength and radiant joy, all that tends to lessen the difficulties caused by sensitivity and great refinement of body and temperament." ++Rt. Rev. Sir J.I. Wedgewood Dr. of Sciences de L'Universite de Paris (Knight of Saint John of Rhodes and Malta & Arch Bishop in the Old Catholic Church)
