Have you ever heard that you are, “too much”?

What did they mean, this person who judged you? Were you happy and exuberant? Did you offer more than they could handle? Maybe the problem wasn’t that you are too much, but that just by being yourself, you made them feel “too little”.

There are so many people on the planet today, over 6 Billion! I find it sad that with so many possibilities, some still allow themselves to be in situations that don’t fit… Never will fit… And are a cause of discomfort to all parties involved.

Say, someone tells you that you are “too much”. What can you do? Consider the source…

Is this someone you truly admire? Have they accomplished anything of significance in their life? Are they someone you would want to be like? If not, then perhaps this is not a person that is contributing anything to your life. It’s time to move on… Your passion for life is not being well received!


Anyone who has ever been “too much”, is a person who is in the wrong place at the wrong time. Given a different set of circumstances, you would be perfect! When you find your place and time, you will never be “too much” again.

To you being yourself…
