Hi love, how are you? How was the last week for you? Welcome aboard, I hope you find hope, happiness and peace here.
It amazes me when people take pride/joy in their inability to cry.
Growing up, I was the cry baby in my family and amongst my friends. Now I’m not talking the weakling, I’m talking the one that’d cry when I hit someone and when someone hits me, the one who cries when her mom drops her off in school, the one who cries when she isn’t given the opportunity to express herself and so forth. I still cry now but I believe I’m more ‘tush’ with it.
When people tell me they haven’t cried in a while, a lot of thoughts run through my head like “you really choose to suffer yourself this way? You really love for your heart to live in a very tight space? You really want to have breathing issues because I feel like my heart is gonna explode when I fight back tears!”Thoughts and thoughts and thoughts!
Crying is simply humans natural response to different emotions(sadness,happiness,grief,frustration etc). Contrary to most people’s believe, you don’t cry because you’re sad alone.
Research has made it known that crying has a very soothing effect and I’m a living proof of that, whenever I’m stressed/frustrated/tired and I cry then do my breathing exercises there is this calmness that follows, I just feel at ease immediately. Crying enhances ones mood, it lifts ones spirit and makes one feel better. This explains why I tend to get back to work after crying(not always, sometimes I cry till I fall asleep). I remember crying one time and immediately after crying I joined the ongoing activities😂.
Victor Oba once said Tears can bring you to a point of satisfaction and comfort, and i can attest to this fact because it is so true!
I understand that you’re an Idan and to you crying might be seen as weakness but in the true sense it is an emotional therapy.
Crying does not signify weakness, it signifies brokenness and the readiness to become better, heal and feel better.

Dear God, please help us realize that we don’t always have to be strong because our weakness is made perfect in your own strength. Help us to cling on you in hard times and also cry when we feel overwhelmed by all the happenings around us in Jesus name Amen.
Till next week remember to cry more often
