Cry Fest


                Do you ever just have a night when all you can do is cry? You get home or escape to your room and all you can do it cry. Well, I know that I do. I used to be a very emotional person, but now things are quite different. I do cry but usual when I cry its because so many things have built up that I just can’t hold the tears in. I know that some people probably think that crying is for the weak, but its not. I recently learned that there are three different kinds of tears. Basal tears, reflex tears, and emotional tears. Basal tears are always in your eyes to protected them. Reflex tears are created whenever your eyes become irritated, and they help remove whatever is irritating the eyes. Emotional tears are the tears you shed whenever you feel extreme emotions, sadness, happiness, disappointment, excitement, etc. The thing that gets me about emotional tears is that they contain two proteins and hormones that other tears don’t. These proteins/hormones are why you feel better after crying. Also crying is good for the eyes. It gives your eyes a chance to flush anything that may be in them out. In other words, having a cry fest is good not bad! It helps you mentally and physically. Just have it all out, ok. A quote I once saw said, “People cry, not because they are weak. It’s because they’ve been strong for too long.” So, if you ever need to cry but don’t want to because you think it’s a sign of weakness, know that it isn’t. Tears are amazing things! Humans are the only ones who emotionally cry. All animals can do is cry because their eyes need it. Emotional tears and uniquely human, which is so amazing!

 

Ok, I know that was a weird post but hey, I’ve written weirder things XD. Anyway, have a nice day, and don’t forget that no matter what happens God still loves you and there are ALWAYS people who you can talk to! I know for me it helps so much to call my bestie and tell her everything.

Lily's Testimony: Finding Joy in Grief

Image
Hello everyone! So, with the COVID-19 pandemic calming down for now, some of us bloggers decided to share a little bit about our lives and how they were affected during these crazy and unexpected times. But, more importantly, we wanted to share about how God has changed us during this time, because this is HIS plan, not ours. He is in control! Therefore, without further ado, I will share about my life, and hope that you can see God behind it all. I am not the center of this story. God is!  This is me with a sweet little one that we welcomed into our home at the end of February 2020. His name is K (well, not really, but for privacy reasons his real name will not be included). K was our second foster care placement. He was 8 months old when he came into our home because of physical abuse. Sadly, we were not even the first home he was removed to; he had lived with two other temporary placements before he came to live with us.  In case you aren’t familiar with foster care, our...

"My Battle Cry"

"My Battle Cry" by Isabella Cole Sometimes I look at the world, and I wish I could get away. Wars are waged in the street, even inside the people I love. Children starving, people silenced, tortured for Christ. So many ignore it, some say it’s fine, but I refuse to make myself blind. This is my song, this is my battle cry: I refuse to leave hope behind. Sometimes I look at my country, and see how far we’ve come. But I also see something else: How much further we have to go. We shout the names of some causes, while others suffer alone. So many see it, others refuse. But I won’t stand by. This is my song, this is my battle cry: I refuse to leave hope behind. Sometimes I look at my town, and I hurt inside. People divided, suffering, not even a mile from me. I see their faces every day. Some smile in passing, but I can do more. So many forget, some say it’s not there, but I refuse to let the darkness win. This is my song, this is my battle cry: I refuse to leave hope behind. Some...
