Overloaded but human
Enough, guys
I don’t know about you, but sometimes the amount of information we’re supposed to absorb is ridiculous. My whole body just… stops. It’s this internal click that says: Enough, guys. There’s a thin line between wanting to grow and feeling pushed into thinking in ways that aren’t yours. And isn’t the whole point of all this — spirituality, healing, whatever you want to call it — to actually develop your voice? To connect with your soul and let it lead?
People forget this part: a spiritual path is a physical path too. Your soul sits inside a body. Ignore the body, and half the journey collapses.
Today I woke up overwhelmed, angry, and sad. I’m not going to sugarcoat it. I’m sharing it because I’m human, and being human is messy. Lately I’ve noticed this tendency in “spiritual” spaces to dismiss emotions like anger or sadness, calling them low-vibration or “the ego acting out.” Maybe they sit in the shadow, sure, but that doesn’t make them wrong. They’re messengers. They show up because they have something to say.
So here I am, circling inside the same mental loops — not spirals — that drag me back to the one place I can’t bypass: my body. My feelings. My truth. And maybe that’s the real work. Not escaping the shadow, but learning how to listen when it knocks on the door.
Anger draws a boundary.
Sadness signals loss.
Anxiety asks for safety.
Today I’m choosing something simple: breathe, feel, and let my soul speak in my voice, not the algorithm’s.
(And if you want to understand the difference between a spiral and a loop, the next post this week is for you.)
With love,
Maria Luisa.
