Being able to cry for one another, to feel the burden of those who are facing difficulties, strengthens the community. It strengthens the bond between people, and then anything is possible. The burden doesn't seem so heavy.

Actually, I think it always surprised him that we would cry over something he wrote, then was distressed he inadvertently caused that.<br /><br />I think after awhile he simply had to accept there would be both happy and sad tears because we care, and would look beyond that to the meaning of our words. Your words here about him, and your tears, are testament to the impact he had on all of us.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing, and big hugs, <br /><br />IrisheyIrisheyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12270910306787125881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879991995070741632.post-48501102887992899912013-07-07T18:22:49.722-03:002013-07-07T18:22:49.722-03:00Thank you, Sassafrass. {{{HUGS}}}Thank you, Sassafrass. {{{HUGS}}}Es Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15862166523815621955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879991995070741632.post-60640041110377718362013-07-07T18:22:29.719-03:002013-07-07T18:22:29.719-03:00I find it really hard to cry in public too, not as...I find it really hard to cry in public too, not as in hard as in I can't, but I get really embarrassed and fight doing it with all I have in me. But sometimes the tears still win out. :( But I'm getting more and more used to them. I used to think they made me weak, but they don't. I hope and pray that if there are times you need to cry in public, that it will just happen for you. ;) Hope you still love me after that. :)Es Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15862166523815621955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879991995070741632.post-52280485454053228462013-07-07T18:20:57.521-03:002013-07-07T18:20:57.521-03:00Thank you, I am honoured that it touched you. {{{...Thank you, I am honoured that it touched you. {{{HUGS}}}Es Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15862166523815621955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879991995070741632.post-78178373523875334532013-07-07T18:20:34.766-03:002013-07-07T18:20:34.766-03:00It is so great to hear about Emily. :) I'm af...It is so great to hear about Emily. :) I'm afraid I don't really know who Ana is, I'll have to look around and see, but I have been praying since I heard about her. <br /><br />I do hope that the tears bring you release. :) You too have such a big heart, and it is so beautiful to see your love and care for others, it really shines through. :)<br /><br />Bless you too. {{{HUGS}}}Es Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15862166523815621955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879991995070741632.post-53157769160030797872013-07-07T18:18:49.353-03:002013-07-07T18:18:49.353-03:00Missy, I don't know what to say...

I can learn a lot from you :)<br /><br />I cry, I cry a lot, I cry at commercials which makes my kids laugh, I cry at sad songs and I cried for our friend Bas. I cried because I'm happy he has found peace now, I cry because we lost our papa bear of Blogland. I cried for Lisa, having lost her love, and for his son, having lost a dad and for baby pixy for not having had a chance to get to know his wonderful grandad. <br /><br />Now I'm crying writing this. <br /><br />Hugs honey xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879991995070741632.post-74512400195918395172013-07-07T02:17:57.723-03:002013-07-07T02:17:57.723-03:00this was so sweet, esmay, and i'm like you, i ...this was so sweet, esmay, and i'm like you, i can cry easily--always have. i have a very tender heart. last night, it was very late, and tears were streaming down my face, my fella was lying next to me, worried.
