"Eyes are the window to the soul"
If this English proverb is true, the reverse is true as well; our soul also sees the world through our eyes. How do we keep our eye clear for our soul to see clearly? We weep! Have we wept enough for joy, for sorrow, for witnessing wholeheartedly, so that our soul has a clean and shining window through which to see our world without distortion?
Weeping, shedding, releasing, cleansing;
That is the eyes' way.
Joy, sorrow, the wind against our face, the pain of another (or our own),
These are the catalysts for tears.
We weep for the joy of accomplishments, seeming and actual miracles, the overwhelm of love.
We weep for endings, losses, witnessing other's pain.
We weep when the wind is in our face,
bringing us a new (something) we are being shown and invited to see.
Our tears cleanse our eyes for clearer seeing.
Weep in gratitude.
Weep!

Self -Reflection: How do I feel about crying? Do I allow myself to shed tears? Do I allow others?
