You’re not too sensitive — you’re still awake.

Some of us cry over baby animals.

We feel it in our chest — the pain of the earth, the silence of others, the ache of knowing too much.

And some days, it’s hard to keep caring.

The world tells us to toughen up, to move on, to look away.

But that has never sat right with you.

You can’t look away.

And you shouldn’t have to.

You’re not too sensitive —

you’re awake.

You’re still here, feeling everything with a heart that refuses to shut down.

And that is sacred.

This space was created for you.

To hold that tenderness.

To honour that ache.

To whisper gently:

You are not alone.

For the animals.

For the earth.

For all of us who are still soft, still standing, still trying to live with love in a world that doesn’t always make it easy.

I’m so glad you’re here.

With love,

Tanya
