Hey everyone! I hope I’m not too late joining this platform. I stumble this site while surfing the net and I found it fascinating.
Let me introduce my very self. I am @colormeben.
What does my name represent? Let me put it in a simpler way.
Color
I’m tolerant to any colors. I’m not talking in literal sense. What I mean by that is whatever your race is you deserve nothing but respect. For that should be the right thing to do. Also, if you happen to love rainbows and unicorns, or maybe you are one, I commend you for braving the odds. I support your way of expressing yourself. Belonging to a third gender is surely never easy for you or to some as the society keeps mocking, degrading, humiliating you. Some continually impose their beliefs as to what is good and what isn’t. Some are righteous, claiming to have moral ascendancy teaching you to “act” this and that because that is norm. I commend you for expressing your real self amidst the labeling of straight man & woman only, disregarding and insulting you for who you really are. You guys are awesome the way you are!
Me
I’m an empath or highly sensitive person (HSP), I easily absorb different kinds of feelings from other people and animals from animals or even just hearing music which is detrimental to my health. (One of these days I would love to write about it here.) Sometimes I am a worrywart.
Also, I’m a nature lover, my simple joy is like seeing the lake or river (without crocs of course!) and sometimes beach. I also enjoy hiking especially in the mountains - seeing different kinds of trees is already heaven for me. I’m also into poetry as I love expressing my thoughts in an indirect way through poems.
Well writing this makes think I do not know myself much. This soul of mine may have existed centuries back. But lucky enough to stay in this very body.
To those who are curious I’m not the one in my profile pic. This profile picture is the album cover of Joni Mitchell’s Cloud, I just love the song ‘Both Sides Now’ of hers. That song is just so beautiful!
Ben
Who’s Ben? Wrong question! Surely, that’s never a person.
What’s ben? Is the appropriate question.
For Scottish, it means a mountain peak. That best describes my dream in life. I don’t live the idea that sky’s the limit if I can reach the peak of the mountain that’s enough for me. I can already die after.
Many thanks for reading. I can't wait meeting you!
