“When someone cries so hard that it hurts their throat, it is out of frustration or knowing that no matter what you can do or attempt to do can change the situation. When you feel like you need to cry, when you want to just get it out, relieve some of the pressure from the inside - that is true pain. Because no matter how hard you try or how bad you want to, you can't. That pain just stays in place. Then, if you are lucky, one small tear may escape from those eyes that water constantly. That one tear, that tiny, salty, droplet of moisture is a means of escape. Although it's just a small tear, it is the heaviest thing in the world. And it doesn't do a damn thing to fix anything.”

“Way of the Heart For the heart, there is always a way Maybe not a way that you had expected or hoped for But there is always a way. What we see with the eyes of our mind Finds a whole new kaleidoscope of colour through the vision of our heart. For the heart, There is always a way. If you cannot go through an obstacle, Span outward, orbit through the sight of your heart And you will find your way around it.”
