Generality

I'm so sensitive to everything. My skin and body is sensitive to pain, and hot, and cold. My mind is sensitive to the emotions and mannerisms of people around me. My stomach and intestines are so sensitive to food. My ears are sensitive to sound and my eyes are sensitive to the details of the world.

As I tried to fall asleep last night, hearing a light tick from a watch somewhere in the house, feeling pain in my legs and back, feeling full from dinner and worry about what the new week would bring, the analogy struck me.

If the universe is a body, I am a nerve.
