Sometimes I wonder if there is such a thing as giving too much. 

It feels as though I do at times. I’m not sure how but I just do

I give because I can, because I care, because I want to

But sometimes it becomes hard. 

There are days when I wake up and feel a sense of resentment creeping in,

a line I hope never to cross. 

But how do I avoid getting there? 

How firm do my boundaries need to be? 

Where do you draw the line between generosity and self-neglect? 

Guilt eats at me because I am not sure if I am supposed to feel this way.

Yet a part of me feels these are some of the things we sweep under the rug, out of fear of how others might judge us 

These are the thoughts creeping into my mind on a Sunday evening…Questions I don’t yet have the answers to.
