i kept wonder, why do adults not cry? why am i starting to hold back my tears now that im only 19 yrs old??? i read this article: How to Cry. It says crying is our first language. Yep, as babies, we cried to tell our parents something we need, something that is hurting us...Truly, to me, crying serves 2 purpose. 1) to tell that something is hurting. 2) to release the pain. Somehow, i always feel better after a good cry. cos crying is a natural release? crying is the single best thing that i could do to relieve stress, anger or sadness.
The article says: The first step to learning how to cry is to own and accept your pain. The important thing is to discover and understand why you are hurting. This will be a painful process, and you might find that once you discover the core of your pain, you will begin crying all on your own. Just remember to be gentle with yourself, and when the tears come, just let it all out. It’s for the best.
yea, i do know how to cry. i am one who cry easily just by watching touching korean dramas. Emotions emerge within me, and tears just flow...at least, i used to be. recently, i have been holding back alot and i do feel suffocated! i dislike the stares that people give when one cries. there seems to be some sort of discrimination against people who cry? our society seems to see crying as a form of weakness... that's why we seldom see guys cry, isnt it?
how i wish that im still a kid. crying seems to be a previledge that is entitled only to babies and kids. i want to cry. i dont want to be an adult...
i do realised that as an 19-years-old young adult, we no longer celebrate Youth Day. (it was only few weeks ago) unknowingly, people held higher expectations of us, heavier responsibilities, creating invisible amount of stress onto us. two more days of 11 Feb and i will be an adult. i look forward to a party that i may be able to hold, but not the fact that i would be an adult. who would, right?
i just feel so old. (will get scoldings from my colleagues if i say that to them!) time really flies. i used to rely alot on my dad. he will take care of everything for me. but when i went to the bank with him to get my bank loan for smu today(sat morning), i realised how much he have aged. roles should have changed already. i am trying to reverse our roles. i find it difficult though. afterall, i used to be a blessed girl under the protective wings of my parents for the past 19 years...
suddenly i rmb the song sang by S.H.E: wo bu xiang zhan da. i dont want to grow up. i've got this feeling right now... i miss everyday of my child-hood and youth-hood. do every teenage, or adult-to-be go through this feeling like me???
do not live in your past, live in your presence. my p4 tuition kid said that to me one day you know. i was alittle surprised...it make sense to me as i thought about it...i will most probably miss my adult-hood when i am an old lady! i must say, my tuition kid is really one rare mature smarty pants and an ultimate joker too. mayb kids nowadays are forced to mature too young ba. not good not good. lucky i am born not too late!
*i just tend to think alot alot* end of my poooool of thoughts.
