CRY YOURSELF TO SLEEP IF YOU MAY!

Crying is not a sign of weakness nor is it a sign of desperation. People cry for various reasons and unaware they release pressure in the process. I am talking about pressure you feel when you hurting or facing a challenge. I view crying as a way of dealing with hurt and the releasing of tension and pressure that has built up inside you over a period of time. People deal with negative and positive emotions through crying I believe (sometimes that is). My encouragement is: cry and cry yourself to sleep if you want.

Try to blow pressure into a balloon with your mouth or using a filling station pressure pump without stopping, I am sure the balloon will definitely blow up at some point. This is because it has taken in more than it can handle, too much pressure. One can always avoid this by releasing a bit of pressure to keep it normal. The difference is a balloon cannot be mended but you on the other hand can easily have a second chance to a happy life; the kind of home you want; the kind of spouse you want; the kind of financial freedom you want etc.. If pressure is bottled up and allowed to mount up to extremes can easily cause permanent damage.  Unwarranted pressure can lead to depression; anxiety; panic; unhealthy lifestyle; alcoholism; easily giving up and many more. Some end up killing themselves or even grossly hurting themselves.

I have experienced that crying sometimes will make you feel much better and contribute to a great feeling of relief. As I mentioned earlier, crying is not a sign of weakness but a smart way of dealing with pressure, an act you can even do in private, isn’t that awesome? Be able to open up, first open up to yourself and allow yourself to understand that you need to deal with an immediate issue. Understand also that you are only human and no negative situation remains unsolvable. Challenges are not meant to be permanent. Secondly talk to someone you trust, share with them how you feel. It is easier to share your story than merely responding to questions that you might not be comfortable with. Thirdly allow yourself some change, it has to come from you, you have to allow change to take place by opening up to it. For example when you are hungry you eat, you allow yourself the liberty to eat. Then after you feel good about it. Likewise allow yourself to heal and change.
 
Remember:

“No challenge is meant to be permanent”
