“

Hearing a song that causes me to reflect or think of certain memories.

“

I was just on my lonely bus seat, quiet, contemplating how stressful my life is until I cried.

“

And I’ll cry tomorrow.

“

When you spend the whole day crying your eyes out, you wonder how you made it this far without shedding a tear. You wonder why everything seemed to come crashing down on you at once.

“

Stop stuffing your emotions in your chest. Stop forcing yourself to be strong. Stop playing pretend because there are plenty of benefits of crying.

“

Movies make me cry. Some say unnecessarily, so but it is just a fact of who I am.

“

“Me: ‘That gap between your front teeth, now that is kinda cute.’
Her: ‘I…have a gap between my front teeth???’
Me: ‘Err, maybe…’”

“

My truth is: There is absolutely nothing wrong. Nothing wrong with me feeling my feelings and nothing wrong with me.

“

That’s when you start stumbling over your words, getting all the things out, crying out with all the pain you have suppressed when you release all the stress and anxiety that you have tried to hide….the room shifts somehow. It feels more honest. More open. Like you can keep going. Like you should keep going.

“

Maybe I used up all the tears I had and there just aren’t any left.
