We all cry sometimes. Crying is part of life and there is nothing you can do about it. Crying is also a part of our emotions and how we feel. Now, I don’t consider myself a sad person, but I would say that I have cried a lot of times. Sometimes it was if I injured or hurt myself, or if something I heard was emotional. Many people look down on people who cry all the time, but I would actually try to console them. I know some people who would just brush away the crying and would just say that they are crying for a very small thing. There have been times where someone would call me a cry baby or someone that cries a lot for dumb things. Even though if sometimes someone is crying over something small, that doesn’t make them weak. Let me set an example for all of you, to get the big picture.

You just got a D or a C on your school assignment from any class. You aren’t really good at this class and you start to feel overwhelmed when the teacher starts having bigger expectations on you and you start to feel the pressure on you and it’s too much to handle. Crying is something you might do, people will say that crying for getting a C or a D is something stupid and that you should learn to toughen up. Now, I understand what it’s like to feel overwhelmed through school, or through school work. It’s hard, and honestly, adults don’t always make it easy. Some people, I feel don’t really know how to handle issues where people are crying about something, and they are trying to console us, but then they say that we shouldn’t cry over a stupid reason. My mom is one person in my family who can console anyone in the right way. She listens to why we are sad and consoles us, no matter how small or big the reason is. Crying is kind of a healthier way of coping yourself and saying that it’s all gonna be alright. You can cry all of you stress, bothers, worries away and you would feel fine after sometime.
