CRYING
Who told you that crying is a sign of weakness? It is not
a sign of weakness, it is an indication of the strength of
feeling. And remember, feeling is deeper than thinking.
Feeling is the closest to your inner witness. If you feel like
weeping, weep! Tears are more meaningful than words. They are
more prayerful, more beautiful, more significant. Words are
dead. Tears are alive, fresh. They are coming from your depth.
Tears can show that you are overfilled with something that
starts flowing through the tears. It need not be sadness, it need
not be mourning; it can be festivity. You have to feel what it is -
whether your tears are coming out of frustration, out of sadness,
out of failure, or they are coming out of joy, gratitufe, or prayer.
Crying is certainly one of the most important things
for everybody to learn. There may be millions of
people who have never cried. They don't know the
pure joy of it, how it relaxes, how it cleanses your eyes.
- not only your outer eyes but your inner vision. It makes
the trees look more green, the sound of words more clear.
If you cry hard, you'll laugh even harder later...
