I have this whole rant I make about life is not an ABC afterschool special - you don't just open up and then feel all better - everyone hugs and we are done. I so wish therapy worked that way.

My therapist talks often about needing a witness as we go back through what happened. He admits some of it is really hard to hear but he always says he can handle it and he is sad for me, not mad at me. And as hard as those sessions are, they are healing overtime.

And those tears? They've waited a very long time to come out. So let them - it is time. There is no shame in crying. A friend told me that some tears come from such a deep place that they are rain on the soul - which helps clean things and allows new things to grow.
