Consumed by Emotions
"I wish I wasn’t so consumed with my emotions."
It’s a sentence I’ve whispered to myself for as long as I can remember.
I’ve never been someone who could easily suppress what I feel.Tonight, watching an episode of Grey’s Anatomy, a story about a premature baby sent me over the edge. It happens almost every episode—I feel everything, all at once, and deeply.That raw feeling is what sparked this post tonight.
For a long time, it felt like my emotions completely controlled my life. I have a habit of finding sadness tucked into almost everything I see. But lately, I’ve noticed that some moments carry a softer kind of grief. I’ve realized these consuming thoughts are actually proof of how deeply I feel, and how much love I have inside me to offer.
There’s a quiet comfort in that—knowing that to hold this much emotion, you have to be filled with an equal amount of love. Holding it all in has never been my strong suit, anyway. And honestly? It feels so good to finally let it out.
i think there’s something beautiful about being able to feel things so deeply, even when it gets overwhelming sometimes. the way you’ve learned to see your emotions as a reflection of how much love you have to give is such a lovely perspective. ๐
