Always too much but never enough

Too much ❤️

Thoughts cascade from within me like a relentless river, refusing to be contained by the boundaries of reason.

I am that person who spills my unfiltered thoughts to anyone who will listen; without pausing to consider the consequences. It is both a blessing and a curse, a double-edged sword that cuts deep.

Attention and affection… I yearn for someone who will think of me amidst the randomness of life, who will stumble upon something and instantly feel the need to share it with me. To be seen and cherished, even in the midst of chaos and uncertainty, is a longing that resides deep within me.

But what are boundaries? A foreign concept to me, as my heart beats with indiscriminate love. Whether our paths have crossed or not, your pain becomes my pain, your sadness becomes my sadness. I am the emotional sponge, absorbing and feeling it all, often to my own detriment.

The path I have chosen is not an easy one. Rejection becomes a frequent visitor, as not everyone can handle the intensity of my relentless openness.

Yet, I have come to accept that this is simply a part of who I am. The ache that comes with being misunderstood and turned away pales in comparison to the joy I find in connecting with others and finally embracing my true self.

Within me resides a vibrant creativity that knows no bounds. Ideas spin and dance within the room of my mind, refusing to ever go quiet. It’s like living in a perpetual storm of thoughts and inspiration. Sometimes, this creative chaos spills over, leaving me lost in a sea of swirling emotions.

In addition to my overflowing nature, I am blessed with an intuitive heart. I have a knack for sensing when you need love, even if you push me away. It’s a gift that both supports and challenges me, a constant reminder of my purpose.

Living with such intensity can be daunting. The constant rejection I face weighs heavy on my soul, threatening to extinguish the fire within me. Yet, I cannot change who I am at my core. Perhaps, I am not meant to be loved in the conventional sense. Maybe, my purpose is to be the one who loves fiercely, unconditionally, and wholeheartedly when others are in need.

So yes, I may be too much for some. But that’s okay. Embracing the overflow of my heart, I will continue to spread compassion and understanding. 

I will never be okay with the past abuse and mistreatment I have endured. It is a pain that runs deep, an injustice that cannot be easily brushed aside. I want to be clear: I did not deserve the hurt inflicted upon me, and I am not to blame for the actions of others.

Sometimes, life deals us a hand that feels unjust. It leaves us angry, hurt, and questioning the fairness of it all. But as I move forward, I refuse to let these experiences define me or dim the light that burns within. I hold onto the understanding that I am not responsible for the darkness others carry.

Life can be unpredictable and cruel, but our worth and goodness remain intact. We have the strength to rise above adversity and defy the unfairness that confronts us. As I journey onward, I carry with me the unwavering belief in the inherent goodness of people, refusing to let the bitterness of the past tarnish my spirit.

And so, I embrace the duality of my existence, the perpetual tug-of-war between being too much and never enough.

I am flawed, yet compassionate.

Overflowing, yet resilient.

And in this complex mix of emotions, I find solace, knowing that my purpose lies in spreading love and understanding, even in a world that may not always comprehend the depth of my being.
