CHANGE IS GOOD............YOU MUST DEAL WITH YOUR EMOTIONS.


A Special Time For Tears

By Ena Clewes

There seems to be no special times for tears. Although we ordinarily think of them as results of unhappiness, this is not always the case.
Sadness is easier to bear with tears, but there are also tears connected with the beautiful.
Tears can be for a love so wonderful, that only God could have created it. Even deep, honest laughter has tears.
For whatever reason, whether there is sadness or sweetness to tears, the deeper their meaning, the greater our capacity for living. The most frequent reason for crying is out of frustration . We condition ourselves for many of the major things, but frustration comes so often and in so many ways, sometimes it takes a good cry to relieve the tension.
Tears are not a sign of weakness but have in themselves a cleansing that can wash away humiliation and hurt, and even the remains of a love , well past its prime. Who hasn't had those moments , when circumstances just overpower us and we feel lost and alone, a feeling that no one cares about us, we just don't matter in the larger scheme of life. We keep our feelings intact in front of others, when we can, but if the situation is too stressful, then tears are the only answer to our emotional upheaval.
Do grown men cry? Of course they do, and why should they be made to feel inadequate or soft if this allows them to deal with their feelings, either of happiness or sadness. Crying knows no sexual barrier, it is an honest human emotion, and if men need to express themselves in this way, then we should feel empathy for them, not ridicule.
There is a great truth in that weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.
We can make that morning be any time we alter our thinking and our words.
