Dont worry... I don't think mena would misunderstand and I'm not misunderstanding either, but I would just like to say that I have this strong belief that people can be both strong and sensitive at the same time. The balance is hard to achieve and makes many people want to give up, which is why a lot of people tend to go one way or the other, but one of my biggest ideals in life is the balance between strength and sensitivity and the belief that they can coexist and work together in one's life. Believe me, I have battled trial after trial that has caused me to slide one way or the other with my sensitivity taking over or my so called strength while pretending I don't feel. I have found that one doesnt truly exist in your life without the other without it having negative effects. Atleast, this is the case for me and most people I know. There are different levels of functioning and balancing the two I recognize, also. One must adapt to thier ever changing situations at points in their life. Whoa... ranting here... umm sorry for the interruption... sneaks out the back door...
