Sometimes they overstimulate me completely.
The noise, the rowdiness, the fighting, the constant fingers in everyone’s butts. My HSP little heart starts to lose it. After being very shouty (which didn’t work) I pulled out my camera and let them go nuts on the bed while I took photos.
And the camera provided just enough distance. Just enough of a buffer that I could take them in. I could see these little faces with kinder eyes.
It made me remember (again) the magic medicine of the camera.
How it has saved me over and over again- allowing me to be more present, more connected, and able to weather whatever heartache I am experiencing with more ease.
It’s my greatest tool for healing.
It puts me in touch with wonder.
It reminds me of the beauty everywhere.
It shows me that underneath the mess, everything is miraculous.
