During the past 3 to 4 years I have overshared a lot, especially on social media

I've praised myself too much, spoken affectionate words towards me.. I am now re evaluating as I have changed enough, feeling comfortable in my skin and confident in myself.

I think I might have given the wrong impression at moments, coming across as too proud maybe, I'm just thinking.. but everything was necessary for me, in order to jump from the edge of extreme self doubt, confusion and depression to a more loving, fertile environment and a healthier heart.

Still there's work to be done as there will always be. I'm not drawing conclusions rather making observations. 🌹

Lately I feel I don't need to overshare any longer. I did it also as a way to be transparent, but I observe now that, although I am truthful and spontaneous, I can grow further. I am not as fully, unapologetically authentic as I can be.

I'm going to retreat and speak up when ready..

Don't get too cocky

The beauty of it is, you are in control. You share what you want to, when you want to, if someone asks you something, you have no obligation to answer. I’ve always been transparent too, if I want to have a conversation, or get to know someone, I think it’s important. But saying that we are within our right to withhold information, not everything is needed to be out there :)
Do not overthink this. In the moment, you do what you feel. That is right. People make their own conclusions. That is on them. Your growth is continuous. Never apologize for who you are, girl. You are real.

I always just saw you a genuine, passionate, restless, adventurous, companionate and deeply authentic. Didn't really pick up on that other stuff you mentioned.

@soulshadow things coexist! Thank you for the beautiful words !

I have never felt you overstated. I have enjoyed reading your posts on your experiences you have shared with us over the past year or more.

@Jenny1234 thank you Jenny. Interacting with you is always leaving me feeling good.
Maybe I was made to feel like that by some, who interpret public openness as private.
And maybe I have been a little more open than what now feels good too..:)

I just know there's something there that I need to adjust but yet it's not clear what it is..

I have only ever seen you as lovely. But what matters is how you see yourself and I only want you to feel well with yourself.

Much love 🖤

@AlchemyFox 🤗🌅
I've never seen it as oversharing, but rather inspiring. With everything you've accomplished, it's only right to be proud.

I love everything you just said
I really can relate to this as I'm sure many others can .

@SW-User thank you for wording it, it is important to hear and to share. Introspection is wonderful, yet there's a whole world out there too and some of us having too much invested into one direction (inwards) I think it's time to get to the other.

I'm inspired to make a painting about this, I'll share here if I manage to create it ❤️

All I know is women cannot become Buddah's.
@Glassysky Clearly an oversight.
