For many of us, our generational "curse" is avoidance.

 For many of us, our generational "curse" is avoidance. We come from people who just act like "it" didn't / doesn't happen. But pain demands to be felt. And somewhere along the line, a child will be born whose charge it is to feel it all. These are your shamans, your priests and priestesses, your healers. You call them mental health patients and label their power as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and the like. But these are the ones who are born with the gift of Feeling. And as we all know, you can't heal the pain that you refuse to feel.
