Oh dear, I do wish I hadn't cried so much...

I mean I do because I cry… A LOT!  I just always have.  The funny thing is though, for me crying is a way for me to purge.  Little stresses and worries build up and once a month, lately once a week or even a day, I just cry!  I cry to the point where I’m honestly surprised I’m not suffering from dehydration sometimes.  It’s not that I’m crying because I’m scared or I’m sad, I just have to get everything out of my system!  And afterwards, I feel so refreshed and new and ready to get back to being productive! 

Yes I’m sure there are more appropriate ways of dealing with stress but for me, crying just works.  Although I’m pretty sure my managers at work think there is something seriously wrong with me…oh well.  I’m embracing me for me, right?  If after this many years I haven’t learned to let it go, I don’t know if I ever will.  Plus, let’s be honest, I’m just a dramatic person so there you go.  Anywhere else in this world, people would have me committed but here they just shake their heads and say “she’s an actress.”  J

Now sometimes I do lose focus and feel a little lost and those tears definitely come from a different place.  Those tears usually happen on Sunday mornings…and boy did they ever flow this morning!  Today was one of those God smack days where He reminds you that He’s in control and everything is taken care of.  It was like I was being held and reminded that I am safe.  And I felt so ashamed!  I was ashamed that I could have the fears and the worries that I have because I have always been taken care of before.  Why should I now fear that things would be different?  Like I didn’t trust in Him and it broke my heart that I could be so doubtful of His plan for me.  So yep, I cried, no bawled this morning.

So I guess for those of you who have dealt with my outbursts this week, because there were a lot of them, thank you…and I’m sorry.  I’ll try to control the river from my eyes but it’s unlikely.  Maybe I just need to start putting myself on a cry schedule!  Then it won’t interfere with the rest of my life and freak so many people out.  I guess I do have to maintain some level of professionalism around others!  Until then, I’ll continue being Alice because we know she cried over eeeeeeeeverything!  And I love her!  So go cry it out people because its ok!

Love,

Kimberly
