It's a hard question to answer, I think. When we were young, we have always been told not to cry in front of others and growing up, we always carry that idea with us. We shouldn't cry in front of our competitors. People always thought that crying is not a good thing, crying shows defeat, crying shows we don't have the ability to solve a problem.
But which one is really true? Have you ever thought about this?
Do we only cry when we can't solve a problem or are we just hurt and we want to somehow relieve the pain.
People cry when they have nothing to eat, people cry when someone left them, people cry when they fail. I think 100 people may give 101 answers.
For me, crying is just one of the ways of showing what my heart truly feels. Whenever I feel happy, I cry and when I’m sad. I cry too.
Is it a weakness then? No, it's not, rather it empties a sorrowful heart to open up to good things.
How about crying in front of other people? Well, it depends,let's take our partners for example, if you couldn't cry in front of them,
how would they understand what you really feel?
How would they know if you're really unwell or uncomfortable?
How would they know how to stop it if in the first place, they cannot even understand where you're coming from?
My dear, crying is our body's natural reaction and our bodies react to different situation so don't overthink if crying is really a sign of weakness or strength.
Just show your true feeling,
just be yourself to build trust around you.
Always remember that sometimes, we need to cry in order to release our stress but also keep in mind that we shouldn't cry over and over again for our misfortunes, we cry, we wipe our tears and we move on. That's what life's all about. Life is short so let's not complicate things, let's all live a simple happy life.
