Don't save your tears for another day
When you need to cry, cry - don't keep it inside, don't save it for another day.
When you save your tears for another day, they don't go anywhere, they stay with you because over the years, unexpressed feelings will eventually cause other organs to weep.
"The sorrow that has no vent in tears may make other organs weep."
— Henry Maudsley, British Psychiatrist
Does it sound like you?
- You don't easily cry, people say about you that you're strong - but when you watch am emotional movie, suddendly your overflowing with tears... And you can't even understand why.
- You don't remember crying since childhood, you've been through so much and never cryed for anything - but somehow when a very close friend of family went through a very hard time, you cried for them.
- This kind of sentence is very familiar to you: "Men don't cry!", "Only girls cry!", "Stop crying like a girl!",
Do you allow yourself to cry for others but not for yourself? Are you saving your tears for another day?
