How Often Do You Cry?

“Stop being such a baby. If you don’t stop crying, I will give you something to cry about!”. Were these a couple of things you grew up hearing? Do you cry? If so, why do you cry and how often? It has been said that crying is good for you. We all love to feel the good quote, “crying cleanses the soul” right? I have always believed this and there is a little medical proof of it being true. When you cry, your tears release toxins and other chemicals are released into your body, creating a feeling of good effect. My belief is that, it really depends on what you are crying about. If you are a person who simply feels depressed and cries for unknown reasons, then to you, it may not be as healing as you think. You still feel depressed afterwards. In order to feel better, you must deal with that which causes you pain.

I have to admit, I cry often. I cry watching a movie, I cry when I see sad news, I cry when I hear that someone else is experiencing a loss, I cry when I hear certain songs and so on. These I believe are good tears, releasing of built up emotions that seem to activate when we see, hear or experience something. I say, let the tears flow like rain. I also cry for no reason at all. This is the scary crying. When you feel weak, low and unhappy with yourself, helpless or not in control, it is not normal. Let the tears out, but do not think that is going to make things better. You have more work to do. One love.~bloghound~
