Daddy Understood Her

Her inner knowing 
kept her apart from the others
not that she was better
but she was hyper vigilant
more aware of their dangers
she sensed their meanness

being an empath 
boded well 
being a healer and an empath
was a double whammy
she felt more strongly than many others
She had to protect herself a bit

She was a life-long learner, inquisitive 
enthusiastic about mysticism and spiritualism.
most of her relatives did not understand, 
her mother thought she was odd.
her sister told her that she was crazy.

Daddy understood.
They often passed each other in their dreams
during astral travel.

So sad that people think negatively about things they can't or haven't experienced. They don't know what they are missing.
