"We shall be the mouth pieces
of the divine spirit ... "
Virginia Woolf
Women the ability to hear the unheard and see the unseen. They smell vague aromas in the air and have anonymous sensations upon the skin. Young mothers taste the sweet kisses of their newborns. Indeed, the five senses seem to be heightened with females. If we include the sixth sense (which I refer to as intuition), it also ranks extremely high with women.
As youngsters, we are probably more aware of the individual senses on a daily basis before we form filters which alter our perceptions. As young adults, we might gravitate towards one particular sense over another or cycle in and out of them. One thing for sure, as women age, all of the senses return doubly heightened.
Over the years, we create a way to access the senses on differing levels. The senses, when called upon, shine through our contributions whether expressed in the arts or various arenas. With time, we begin to understand the privilege of being a vessel for spirit. Spirit uses us as a tool to reach out to others. The information we share pours through our senses, not through our cognitive thinking.
