On Crying.

Following on from the previous post, I realise now why I’m not only comfortable with people crying, I actually like it.

People cry for many reasons: out of joy, out of relief, out of frustration, out of compassion for others, out of sadness for themselves...

It seems to me – or it might be more accurate to say it feels to me – that crying is the process by which the inner self makes much needed contact with the outer. It’s when the inner core of our being comes out of the dark place to which we keep it confined and breathes in the light of day. It’s the moment when the soul glows.

And when the soul glows, we become authentic. I like authentic.
