Crying
Posted on October 31st, 2008 by Bro. Don
It has been well established that laughing is good for you, but what about crying? It’s good for you, too! As far as we know, human beings are the only creatures that shed tears. The shortest verse in the Bible simply says, “Jesus wept.” We can safely conclude that if Jesus cried, it’s okay for us to cry, too.
We know that stress is harmful, for the most part. There is a good kind of stress (kind of like a good kind of cholesterol,) but there is a lot more bad than good, and the bad will do you in. Crying is a stress reliever. That’s why people feel better after they have had a good cry. So, laugh all you can, but when your finished with laughing, cry a while.
