Don’t carry the weight of the world on your back. Only carry what’s truly essential for you. Never forget that your heart needs its own personal space too. Cry even when you don’t need to, because strong people know how to let themselves have these moments.
Crying isn’t a sign of weakness, and you can’t be “strong” every day. Maybe you were brought up with that idea that tears are best “swallowed.” Or that life is tough and crying isn’t good for anything. Over time, this idea can cause very serious emotional problem. Not crying can mean that you’re not showing what you feel, you’re hiding behind a mask of being alright.
If you try to seem normal by covering up your feelings and problems, you’ll be doing more than hiding your emotions from the world, you’ll also be hiding them from yourself.
Hidden emotions are nothing but problems you refuse to face. A mismanaged emotion can end up manifesting as a headache, migraine, fatigue, muscular tension, dizziness, digestive problems…
You can’t be strong every day, just like you can’t hide your discomfort or sadness your whole life. It’s neither healthy or helpful. You need to give yourself moments of release because your tears can be true stress relievers, releasing pent-up nerves and emotions.
Sometimes crying can heal you.
Tears come are a form of release and the first step to change. They mean you’re taking charge of your emotions and letting them out.
Crying will help you reach a calmer place. You’ll feel more relaxed and better able to see the reality an make decisions. No one knows what it took to get where you are today better than you. No one knows what you’ve had to give up for others, for the people you love.
You’ve done it all for free will because it was what you wanted. You know that perfectly well, but there’s always a time when it seems like life, and even the people around you, don’t treat you with the same appreciation that you’ve given them.
You have to be strong in a society where social and work life can be really hard. But it’s not always easy to show your strength to your parents, siblings, or partner. There are times when these loved ones might prioritise themselves over you.
The truth is that are just some days when you’re fed up with being strong, of carrying everything on your shoulders. In those situations, crying isn’t a sign of weakness, it’s just necessary.
It’s important to set boundaries so that life can’t ask more than you have to offer
No one can give more than they have. It would be impossible to provide happiness and warmth to your loved ones if they didn’t give you attention or love in return. The key to all this is balance. To be strong and to deal with everything the day brings you, while also fulfilling these goals (and remembering the hardships you have to face) it’s important to keep firm boundaries.
Being strong, means, first and foremost, being happy with yourself. Work on your personal growth, enjoy your alone time, your hobbies, etc. Love everyone alongside you and above all, love yourself.
The strongest people around are the ones who know how to love other people at the same time as they love themselves. By the way, none of that is selfish.
Being strong also means getting rid of any weights that drag you down and stop you from moving forward. These things bring down your quality of life and cause you pain. We all know that sometimes it can hurt, but you absolutely have to stop prioritising people that don’t care about you.
So don't feel your cry as your weakness instead enjoy it because only the strong person cries.
