IF-Detach


Yet another appropriate theme for me to illustrate.
I've been trying to teach myself the art of detaching so that I can stop being so sensitive to what other people say or do around me. Maybe detach to save myself from being hurt or heartbroken.
A piece of me to stay whole, and the other to escape.

If I detach too much... what will I sacrifice?

  2. I've been sensitive my whole life and know that it's hard to detach from insensitive comments. It's best to learn how to get an inner lion that roars when someone says something stupid. Roar! Don't lose the sensitive side--it's the inner artist.
