Human emotion is a funny thing. We laugh, we cry, we grit are teeth in raging anger. Many things cause a mix of emotions, but nothing more so than the loss of one held so deeply. We may find it embarrassing to cry, and regret when we dont, but its ok to do so. Crying is expression. If you held it back, it would only be a matter of time. Pain subsides and returns and there isnt much we can do about that, but when some one dies, whether its a logical point or not, arent they always there. You will always have memories, and you will always have them. To survive is to carry the souls of others. When you lose some one, let it bring you closer to who you are and who you cherish. Learn to cherish all qualities of not just your own life, but those who were passed on to you. Each one special, each its own story, the stories that live on in your heart, residing behind the soul until it too has its turn to release its burden and be carried as well. Survive to pass that on. Survive to carry that. Survive not for the sake of your own hide, but to keep the stories and memories of all those behind you. So when you cry, remember you're never alone. You have all those wonderful souls around you. Its ok to show how you feel and its ok to be scared, you're only surviving and adding to the book.
