The Real 'Me' Is Within the Tears

"You mustn't cry."
"It's not allowed to cry."
"I am not the kind of weak person who cries."

Are you holding back your tears
like this?

It is okay to cry.
In fact, please do cry.
The fact that you can cry is—
because it is the true voice of your heart.

Tears are not just water.

They are a 'gentle message'
that your heart
quietly offers to you.
Crying is never
a 'defeat' or 'running away.'
It is your heart


"You don't have to try any harder than this."telling youthat.
Those tears are like


a 'guardian deity of the heart'
flowing to keep your heart from breaking.

Tears can be broadly divided
into three types.

・Basal tears (moistening the eyes)
・Reflex tears
(such as when cutting onions)
・Emotional tears
(sadness, anger, joy, etc.)

Among these, the one that
works most on the 'heart'
is—emotional tears.

It is known that emotional tears
have the effect of
expelling stress hormones
from the body.
This is why you feel
a sense of relief or
clarity in your feelings
after crying.

Another function is
what is called the 'catharsis (purification) effect,'
which helps restore emotional balance
by releasing suppressed emotions
along with the tears.
In other words, the act of shedding tears
itself

is 'the heart's natural healing power.'

One evening, I was casually
looking through my photo folder on my smartphone.

I opened a photo from
several years ago without thinking.
In it,
a mentor who is no longer with us was smiling—

and suddenly, I could not
stop my tears.

Even though it happened many years ago,
at that moment, the 'loneliness' and 'longing'
I had pushed into a corner of my heart
came welling up.
It was as if they were saying, 'It's okay, it's alright to grieve properly,'

and 'You don't have to pretend to have forgotten anymore.'

By letting tears fall,
emotions I hadn't even noticed
were revealed.

After that, I felt like I could be
a little kinder.
To myself, and to those around me.

❥・・ ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ・・❥

When you cry,
it is the moment when your 'true feelings' and 'heart's core'
quietly show their faces.

Your tears are conveying
the feelings you cannot put into words.

Therefore, you who cry are
not 'weak,' but
'a person with a delicate, rich,
and sincere heart.'

You who can cry
are living without betraying yourself.
That is a truly wonderful thing.

❥・・ ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ・・❥

In life, there are pains that cannot be put into words and
emotions that are too much
to carry alone.

Instead of forcing yourself to organize them
or acting tough,
try entrusting them to your tears for a while.

It is okay to cry.
Being able to cry is an amazing thing.


And, it is precisely when you cry that—
you can meet
the 'real you.'

May your tears today
not be denied by anyone
and be gently wrapped in warmth.

If you feel like
you haven't cried lately,
I also recommend
crying to music♪ or movies🎞‎⟡.·
❤️

Manga or anime are good too, aren't they?🤗
For me, it's ONE PIECE,
the Marineford Arc,
'Portgas D. Ace Dies'.
This always
makes me cry 100%‪🥲‎‪🥲‎‪🥲‎
