I Overshared Again Today

It felt so good to share in the moment today but afterward, I felt a huge sense of dread and remorse. When I let my guard down, too much information comes out. I share my inner thoughts and feelings and that leaves me incredibly vulnerable. I use to think it was my need for connection but now I think it has more to do with how I naturally am. Maybe that uncomfortable feeling comes from having to adjust because most people do not like to be as open and exposed. The memory of the times I have been burned from my openness occasionally reminds me in time to dial everything back. I think before I speak. As I am getting older, I find that effort exhausting and my ability to maintain it weakened. Perhaps now is the time to set boundaries for those that abuse the information.
