Sometimes it just feels good to cry, even if you don't know why. Many people frown upon tears and say they're a sign of weakness; that whatever it is, it's been long enough, and there's no reason to cry. But whatever you're crying about, whether it's something that happened yesterday, or whether it happen fifteen years ago, or whether your just crying for no apparent reason at all, it's all the same thing, and no one has the right to judge. It's important to reflect, and think, and feel.
When someone says to you "don't cry, everything will be alright." I say, "Do cry, let it out, it's alright if you don't know why you're crying. It hurts, let out your sorrow, let out your happiness, let out whatever emotion it may be."
When we bottle up our emotions, we are asking for trouble. Speak to yourself, talk to yourself, get to know who you are. When I ask myself who am I? Sometimes I don't know the answer, and other times I have an idea. But it's important to get to know yourself, to let yourself in, and understand. Sometimes it's nice to talk to someone else, and sometimes it's nice to keep things to yourself. But don't keep them from yourself. Everything we do is apart of who we are. It's okay to make mistakes, to make achievements, to make nothing. For nothing is something, in its on way. Tears can mean a lot of things, and it's okay to sulk. It's okay to want to be alone, to be upset, to be angry. Don't suppress your emotions, because by suppressing it only makes the emotion harder to express. Go ahead and let it out.
Cry. Laugh. Shout. Hug. Scream. Love. Vent. Smile.
"There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming grief and unspeakable love." -Washington Irving
