I believe crying can be healing and we all go through challenging times where sometimes, all we really need to do is allow the tears.
They can show us where we hurt so we can be there for ourselves and give us the time we need to grief, to heal, to mend our broken hearts.
Because we are humans and no-one gets out of here without their heart being broken at least once. As Leonard Cohen famously said
There’s a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in.
