“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.

This is a wonderful quote and I wish I had it when I was in a discussion with someone who said adults who shed tears are emotionally stunted people and the only use for it is in babies who can't communicate. Allow yourself these tears and be not ashamed of them. It's a sad time you are going through and it's a rough time of year.
I just can't stop crying. My chest and stomach HURT from sobbing so much.
Tears are good, it soothes the soul, let it flow …
Just let it all out. It's helping you more than you realise. Thinking of you XXX
Thanks Selma.
I've been crying non-stop since MONDAY. On Thursday and Friday, I forced
myself to get out of bed – and out of the house. I tried to surround myself
with my friends, but I just ended up sobbing at my girlfriends dinning room
table. I am pretty sure everyone is getting SICK of my tears.
And now, I don't know if it's just because I am such an emotional wreck, or
if I have some kind of virus, but I have been SO SICK TO MY STOMACH.
I've been trying my very best to distract myself, and stay busy, and do the
things I used to do before I ever met Sonny, but NOTHING is working. Nothing
is making me feel ANY better. Honestly, I feel WORSE every day.
Nope… not sick of hearing it at all. You have been through a very emotional experience. My heart hurts for you. Things will get better, it will just take time. In the meantime… cry your little heart out.
gosh meleah, i feel so sad for you. i've had my days of tears and in time, things will heal.
“Like the rivers of our earth that flow from the highest mountains and forge their way through the deepest valleys, our tears cut a path through the highs and lows of our emotional life.”
Don't appologize. We are not tired of hearing your struggle. I only wish we could ease some of your pain. You've had an tremendous emotional loss and you are grieving like any normal person would. Write when you feel up to it and cry as much as you like. We'll still be here for you. I am not a very devot/religous guy, but I am praying for you.
Thank you.
I just wish TIME would go faster!
Agg, You are a wonderful friend.
Meleah, I wish there was something I could do for you. I hate that you are hurting. Know that I am thinking of you and praying for you and hope that healing finds its way to you soon. xoxo
Thanks Terri!
Tears are good in helping us release the emotions that bottled up inside us. And after the tears, I hope that like the rain, we will see the rainbow.
I could totally use some rainbows right about now.
Meleah just start going back and doing the things you love to do and you won't have to fake anything. You have a wonderful family that loves you and a great community of readers. you will be back and better than ever.
xoxoxo
