I feel like society has this stigma that it is not okay to cry. That we need to have this tough exterior. I totally disagree with this. I feel GOD made us have a full spectrum of different emotions so that we can be balanced. It would be crazy to always laugh in life. That would be exhausting. Or even to be angry would be tiring. We need to have a balance of emotions.
Crying cleanses the soul. It purges all the yuck that is inside. I am not saying that you need to cry every day. I am just saying don’t avoid crying. I think some people avoid crying because they are so afraid that if they start crying they will not stop.
To me, it is easier to just cry when I feel it and it is less likely that I will have that built up amount of emotions. But also I think that there is nothing wrong with having a powerful cry. I call this a whale cry.
To me, the definition of a whale cry is using everything within you to cry. Your voice, your muscles your whole being. I call it a whale cry because when I cry like this I feel like I said like a whale. I will say that this type of crying is usually not recommended for the public.
This is a sitting in your room alone just letting it all out. It takes everything for me to get through this type of crying. But you know what? I feel so much better when it is all done. I feel so refreshed. It is almost like exercising. Just using all my energy to get all the yuck out.
So the next time you have the urge to cry DO IT. Let that junk out. Take Care Much Love.
