Let me just start with saying, I know how you feel. My entire life I have been one big bubble of emotions over everything. Books, movies, life, death, little things, big things. Every time thing in my life made me feel, whether it was sadness or joy or anger or frustration. I know how hard it can be. Sometimes the littlest thing can set you off into an internal struggle of anger which other times it's a constant build up of stress that finally makes you burst into tears. Either way, any feeling, it's never easy. You probably sometimes worry that there's something wrong with you or that you're just overly sensitive. Let me tell you: that's wrong.
There is not single one thing wrong with you. You are perfectly fine the way that you are. And you are not oversensitive. You are the girl who wears their heart on their sleeve and leaves it open to everyone. You are the girl who can empathize with the littlest things because you are not afraid of other's to see your feelings. While you might sometimes be embarrassed by your emotions or your "feels", whichever you wish to call them, I want you to know that it's that little bit of you that makes you that much extra special. You are a rare breed in this world where we try to not show emotions and try to remain stoic as ever, sticking with the new fads. You are unique and wonderful and you are not allow.
I cannot count the numerous times when I would break down into tears over the smallest things, even things that were not relevant anymore. I would cry over a book or a movie or simply just a character. It would come out of no where or with the sound of a certain song in the background. I, too, used to think that it was because something was wrong with me or I was just a big ol' cry baby. It took me some time to realize that this was just simply who I was. I was a girl who felt too much. I was a girl who's emotions would spill out of her like a waterfall, with no end in sight. And I learned that this was okay. I learned that this was me.
Whether it is a random burst of anger you feel at the world or frustration because something did not go your way, you need to remind yourself that it is okay for your emotions to be ten-fold what someone else's would be. You need to remind yourself that it makes you you. Your heart is too big for your body that it is on your sleeve, exposed to the world around you and all the bad that is in it. But remember that this does not make you weak in anyway, no.
This makes you stronger than ever.
