Welcome to Lightbearer’s Library—a quiet sanctuary for highly sensitive men who feel invisible and alienated from the modern world. Many gentle men have spent their lives hiding their tenderness, grief, and emotional truths. Some learned early that kindness was mocked, sensitivity was a 'weakness', curiosity was unwelcome, and being emotionally open was unsafe. This channel exists to remind those men: you are not weak, broken, un-manly or too much. Through slow, reflective journal-style conversations, I explore the inner world of Highly Sensitive People (HSPs), through the lens of my own life...

Check in at the checkout 16.10.2025

Hello dear soul, In today’s journal entry, I explore how small daily choices can help us slow down, create genuine human connections, and resist the temptations of convenience that lead us to disconnect from our fellow humans. I invite us to consider what it means to be human in this increasingly automated world. I suggest that by choosing the human-operated checkout line over self-checkouts, we c...

What’s the quality of your money? 15.10.2025

Hello dear Soul, In today’s journal entry I share some thoughts about Ken Honda’s book “Happy Money: The Japanese Art of Making Peace with Your Money”. In today’s world there is so much fear and anxiety about money. In my life I’m working on shifting my story about money. When it comes to money we exclusively talk about quantity, but Ken Honda’s book helps us to think about the quality of our mone...

Are your relationships mismatched? Transactional vs relational style 14.10.2025

Hello dear Soul, In today’s journal entry I reflect on being in a family relationship where there is a mismatch of relationship styles. I share my experience of being in a transactional style relationship with my brother and my painful decision to distance myself from him. If you have had this experience, I feel for you! I would love to hear if you have found ways to navigate transactional relatio...

Make decisions based on feeling (INFP/INFJ) 13.10.2025

Hello dear soul, welcome to the Lightbearer's Library 🕊️ In a world obsessed with logic, spreadsheets, and pro/con lists, is it wrong to make life's biggest decisions based purely on your values and authentic self? In this journal entry we explore the power of using your "Feeling" cognitive function—specifically Introverted Feeling (Fi) and Extroverted Feeling (Fe)—as a valid,...

This is driving your decision making... 11.10.2025

Hello dear Soul, In today’s journal entry I talk about what’s driving our decision making. In life we can feel like we do things we didn’t want to do, we make decisions that we look back on and think why did I do that? We are frustrated and feel like we’re out of control. Personality typology can help us to understand why we make the decisions we do and can help us to make better decisions for our...

When to forgive and let go 10.10.2025

Hello dear Soul, In today’s journal entry I talk about when forgiveness means letting go of a relationship. There are times when others hurt us, but we know that no matter what we say, they won't understand why we’re hurt by their actions. I’ve seen that a lot of hurt can come from being very different from others, and having very different values from others. This can lead to being unintenti...

Why the Golden Rule doesn’t work 09.10.2025

Hello dear Soul, In today’s journal entry I talk about why the Golden Rule doesn’t work. As we know the Golden Rule says that we should treat others the way we would wish to be treated. But I would argue that we should actually treat others the way that they wish to be treated. I think most of us unconsciously know that others are different from us and we try to think about how others in our lives...

Not intuitive? Then you need this… 07.10.2025

Hello dear Soul, In today’s journal entry I talk about why people who don’t use the cognitive function of intuition as their main perception function (as opposed to sensing) should learn about the personality type framework. Because our society consists of a majority of sensors (70%), it means that that function is most understood. This can leave intuitives (30% of the population) feeling misunder...

Are you intuitive? Then you need this… 06.10.2025

Hello dear Soul, In today’s journal entry I talk about why people who use the cognitive function of intuition (either Ni or Ne) as their main perception function (as opposed to sensing) should learn about the personality type framework. Because our society consists of a majority of sensors (70%) it can leave intuitives (30%) feeling misunderstood and out of sync with the world. So when we learn ab...

How to heal emotional hurt 05.10.2025

Dear Soul, In today’s journal entry I talk about my own journey of healing from some recent family hurt and how using personality type (MBTI) as a framework for healing has been super helpful. Firstly, personality type helps us to recognize that we potentially look at the world very differently from those who have hurt us. That they may not have intentionally hurt us, it’s just that they have a di...

Dear Soul, If you're lonely, I feel you and I'm sorry for your suffering.

Befriend ourselves 2. Recognize that we’re all connected 3. Be grateful for the people we do have in our live...
