Tears are Great Cleansers

“Tears are great cleansers…at first things are a little blurry, but then they become clearer.” Tears, like rainy days, cleanse and refresh.

Sometimes you just need to cry. Sometimes you just need to release built-up emotion. Sometimes crying is the only thing that feels right and good. Sometimes you need someone’s shoulder, and sometimes you just need a pillow. Sometimes you need a single tissue and sometimes you need a whole box. Sometimes you need a minute, and sometimes you need a day.

Sometimes you need to cleanse something out of you in order to make room for a new perspective, a new emotion, a new thought, a new idea, or a new game plan. Allow yourself to cry. If someone else is crying, let them (even if it makes you uncomfortable). Crying is not an outcome of weakness; it is an act of self-awareness and strength.

Do you allow yourself to cry and release?
