Cry baby, cry. It is okay to cry. It is okay to feel. Feeling is a good thing. It is a necessary thing. Your tears are proof that you are alive. They are proof that you feel deeply. I know you are hurting. You have a right to be hurting right now. You opened your heart. You took a risk; a big brave risk and instead of receiving love, you have suffered a disappointment. It is right that you should cry. I know your heart feels as though it is breaking and that you will not ever feel joy again, but you will. I promise. You will feel more joy than you have ever imagined. These tears you are shedding right now are cleansing your heart. They are being used to assist you in releasing resistance to those things that hold you. Those things that are holding you back from the joy that is yours.
Cry baby, cry. Let your tears wash away the pain and hurt you are feeling, and the fears that are consuming you at this moment. Remember the truth that is written in your heart…“Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning”. The morning will come once again. It always does. It is my promise to you.
Cry baby, cry. I know right now, your heart feels as though it has a giant hole in it, like a gaping wound. I understand that you are feeling this way. I remind you again that you are brave and courageous. You took a big risk by opening your heart. You did the right thing. I know it does not feel like that in this moment, but it is truth. You had kept your heart closed for quite a long time. You did that to avoid pain. By keeping your heart closed to avoid pain, you also kept it closed so that love could not find its way in. You knew that opening your heart to love, would also open it to pain. I am proud of you. You opened your heart knowing that pain would be a part of it. Pain always plays a part in the matters of the heart. It is a necessary part. It is contrast. When you feel pain, you are creating its opposite. You stopped trying to avoid pain and embraced the risk. Your tears are washing away the pain. Your tears are cleansing your soul and healing your heart. Your tears are like salve to your wounded heart. Let them flow baby. It’s okay, let them flow.
Cry baby, cry. Cry out all those tears. I want you to know you are not only crying over this current loss. No, you are crying for all the losses throughout your life. You are crying for all the pain you have endured. And, in doing so, you are making room in your heart for the love you so desire to come in. Yes, that is right. You are opening a space for beautiful love to come in. There is more love waiting for you than you can imagine. Soon, you will be laughing and having fun again. But first, the tears. Love is waiting for you, so for now…cry baby, cry.
