Too Much Love

Writing about love isn’t hard for me ’cause I’m filled with love to share. But would you believe me if I told you that love…terrifies me sometimes.

I’ve always believed that we should live life now for tomorrow isn’t certain. Visit that place you’ve been dreaming about. Eat that snack you’ve been craving for. Show the people you love just how much you care for them. Do it now or regret it for the rest of eternity. God doesn’t wait for tomorrow before letting His people know that He loves them. Being called to love Him and to love other people, I go all out with my love. I express what I want to express. Thankfully, a lot of people like that part of me. I’m happy that you also appreciate my presence.

But I wonder if you know the other part of me who’s worried about being too much. I ponder a lot about it. What if I’m too clingy? What if I’m too sweet? What if I’m too much? Don’t people get fed up of cake if they eat it everyday? People can’t breathe if you hug them too tight right? I worry about my love being the suffocating type. The kind that intimidates. The kind that’ll make people keep their distance. The kind that’ll make you re-think having anything to do with me.

Is there such a thing as loving you too much?
