What kind of aroma?
I was talking to someone today and telling them that I do not like wax melts. I tried to be kind in the aspect of not disrupting their view of them but to tell me that I must like them because you do, is not the way to go with me. Not that I am inconsiderate but of the fact that I smell everything.
Long ago when my daughter was just over a year old I was working some place and got a chemical spill on me. Not only did the liquid spill on my skin but I inhaled it too. The chemical burned from my nose, down my throat and into my stomach. All this caused my nose hairs to be burned. I lost any immunity or filtration from this event.
It took nearly three months with wearing a mask and on leave with a debilitating low immune system and incapable of walking, to come back to work. My first excitement is when I got my sense of smell back. My sense of smell increased as well as my sense of taste.
So back to the conversation with the wax melts. I not only smell the fake fragrances but also the wax and electricity burning those scentsy melts. I tried my hardest to explain to someone who cannot smell anything just how sensitive my nose was. I was speaking to a wall of stubborness.
Sadly when trying to explain I ended up saying that the aromas cause migraines, burning in my nasal cavities and numbing of my tongue. I had to go further to show that I smell the earth, the musky skins of vegetables and fruits, the lightest aromas of flowers and the heady ones too. Then I went on to explain that I can taste the wax melts too.
So much to the point of going to sleep in a filtered room is a must. The person I was explaining to just rolled their eyes and said that no one has that kind of sensories. And all I could do to be congenial is to walk away. Forgoing trying to explain further because their authority knows all.
I said my prayer and took myself to my bedroom. I decided to research a few things while I made myself sleepy. Only to have this person pull me back into the room and yell at me for turning their scentsy machine off. Needless to say I just turned around and walked back into my room. Respecting them and giving ample space because my temper was about to flare. I would have failed to apply what I prayed for.
So I am, now, retraining my thoughts upon their concerns and weighing my anger issues into applications of love, forgiveness and compassion. That is what I must do for those who don't want to understand others. Just want to blame and cause drama.
I must always remember not everyone can understand, comprehend what is given to them. I must remember to be patient, loving and kind while showing empathy for their lives. Ah.. All to explain that I smell everything. I sigh. I exhale. Now I pray.
Ending the night with. Do you understand me? Do you know the differences of the scents of the earth? Do you know what cloudy rain smells like? How about powerful thunderstorms with heat behind them? Tell me do you know their aromas?
Alas I lay my head down as the migraine begins because the scentsy of pine, cotton linen and flowers decorate the interiors of the house. Good night to all.
