Battery Low, Need to Plug into Energy Source to Recharge
When things get to me
It is a kind of draining
Like when you see the battery indicator on your cell phone
Showing the charge is getting low
My energy level goes down along with my spirits
Feeling low
Have to allow time to recover and get recharged.
The Opposite of Low is Elation or Passion
I wrote this on a prior post:
Too Passionate
I think there is a passionate temperament. A person that can feel so strongly. There have been many times when I have been standing upon my soapbox and declaring my opinion about something I found wrong in the world.
During those times of strong emotion I have noted others looking on calmly, almost disinterested. I have thought to myself how can they not feel anything about this? How can anyone not feel strongly about this ? How can people feel so dispassionately about things? It is like they are already dead.
I realized that I was different.
It is not just passionate indignation that I feel. When you have the capacity for strong feelings you can feel great joy and elation as well. Like when you see something you find beautiful or hear music that you love.
I am glad I am different if it means to feel deeply and be more aware in the world. Maybe this is why I always wanted to stand up for people’s right to be different. To be who they truly are.
Have you ever felt different or been told you are different?
Some people are sensitive.
“The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this:
A human creature born abnormally, inhumanly sensitive.
To him…a touch is a blow,
a sound is a noise,
a misfortune is a tragedy,
a joy is an ecstasy,
a friend is a lover,
a lover is a god,
and failure is death.”–Pearl S. Buck

Notes Tied On The Sagebrush 
I think the great majority of us are sensitive emotionally; it’s just that some feel the need to disguise it. Of course, there are those who lack empathy, and those who project a cold stoicism at all times, though the human nervous system is not so very different in its constitution in whomsoever it manifests. Even the truly equanimous may feel life fully and in a vital awareness; indeed, they are perhaps very well placed so to do.
Many thanks Deborah; it’s good to see you continuing to write.

Thanks Hariod. ❤ I did not mean to suggest that we all don't have emotions. But I think those of us who are more sensitive feel them deeper and can get drained by the environment.

How is it so many people seem to be void of it or chasing someone else’s?
