Tracks of my tears...

Tears are powerful
They could mean that you’re sad
They could mean that you’re happy
They could mean that you’re confused
They could mean that you’re scared
They could mean that you’re tired
Whatever draws tears from your eyes is important in that moment
So often we try to hide what’s going on inside of us
We play off serious situations by making silly jokes
We mask our pain with anger to hide the fact that we’re hurting
We mask our vulnerability with confidence to protect ourselves
No matter what you try to do, your tell is your tears
Try working with the emotions instead of fighting them
Try expressing what’s going on inside instead of trying to redirect people from the truth
It’s so much easier to just be transparent than to try to be complex
In the end your complexity only leaves you alone, broken, and afraid
Sometimes a good cry makes it all better and allows someone to step in where they’re needed
