There’s a color you can think of, but can’t quite name,
There's a tune you can hear, but just can’t sing,
There’s emotions that you’ve felt, but cannot explain,
Right?
No?
Maybe I’m just weird.

To Sjeu 		Not weird to me.. Sjeu, 02 Feb 2023 15:58
Words sometimes limit meaning. Just because something has no name, doesn't mean it isn't there. Your perception is everything. To define can also mean decline.

In school I learned that in a healthy state, we all have 5 senses. Eyes see, ears hear, noses smell, tongues taste and with the nerves woven through our skin we can experience bodily sensations. Buddhism states there is a 6th sense; your spirit that is aware of ideas and mental concepts.

A couple of years ago I did an in depth course in tantric dance and here I was handed this notion that you can think of your heart as a sensory too. The sense that connects. It makes connections. It connects you with yourself and it connects you with other people, animals, nature, etc.

To Sjeu 		Yes Sjeu, 02 Feb 2023 16:00
I thought it was a beautiful insight. My heart as a sensory that enables me to feel connection. It can help me practice being in the moment, being aware of myself and others. Its a journey. Beautiful, messy and sometimes scary. To discover it's vastness. Does it have a beginning? Where does it end?

There are 2 more hidden senses.

Proprioception: (being aware of your body and it's placement within any surrounding. Eg. people who easily trip or bump in to things, who often drop things or are late to notice a full blatter or when they are hungry, could train their proprioception.

Interoception is the ability to notice, recognize and understand bodily sensations and stimuli. This has a close relationship with empathy. Also it's how our nerves communicate with the nerves of other people.

To Sjeu 		Those 2 senses are different from Sjeu, 27 Feb 2023 19:51
not knowing how you feel and how to name your emotions. This is a personality trait or condition that occurs in 1 out of 10 people. It's called Alexithymie and this emotional inability can be surpassed in families.

My rants are still here
Sorry
They are tainted,
But I am feeling better.
Safety is in my pills

To Sjeu 		Just very happy to hear Sjeu, 12 Jan 2023 19:02
You are feeling better now!
It helpes us remember
that sometimes
we all can be
a little bit
fragile..

Thank You,
I feel that we are somewhat glass,
Breakable, but capable,
Of being made into something new
