Cup overfilled...

Crying....

It is not weakness.

Sometimes....

Crying is just a sign that your cup is overfilled.

That you have carried things alone for far too long...

Maybe you did not really let yourself feel it in full...

But eventually, it catches you... 

It holds you tight...

It forces you to explode...

Realease...

Let go...

And like a phoenix, hopefully, you will come out stronger, wiser, in the other end... 

But for me... Crying have always been a sign of weakness someone taught me... 

I was taught to be bullied if I cried... 

So I stopped.... 

I hid it. And eventually stopped. 

So for me... Crying in itself is brave... 

But when you hold on for too long, 

and pretend that you are okay... 

Eventually the cup will be overfilled... 

And... Maybe it needs a trigger button... 

Like some words spoken to your heart... 

Or a song... 

Or something... 

The only way out is through, they say... 

And hopefully you find the warm light on the other side ❤️
