I had spent 32 years of my life crying, I was tired of crying and the sense of weakness that it gave me. At the same time listening to the words in this song empowered me and actually gave me the feeling of a great release by the time there were no more tears left to cry. This song was very special to me and still is to this day because it taught me a very important message along my healing journey. It taught me that it not only is alright to cry but that it is actually GOOD to cry and release all those negative feelings and thoughts.
I have since discovered that its through all the pain and tears that I gathered enough strength through the years to survive and be where I am today, living abuse free and slowly traveling my healing journey. I have found a certain peace in letting the tears flow freely whenever needed because each time I do there is another negative weight lifted off my shoulders. With my mind not full and running wild with all those past negative feelings and memories I find that I can replace the negative thoughts with more positive ones so that as I travel along my load gets lighter and lighter. I am learning freedom once again, recognizing my feelings and more capable of letting go of a dream and making new ones. I am shedding the negatives as I move forward, leaving them in my past where they belong. So if I happen to have a really tearful day today, its OK as it will soon be in my past and tomorrow is always a new day. A new day to discover new possibilities to explore, new things to learn about me and my life and each new day brings forth more room to discover and store new positives to help me get to that happy place I so long to be.
Like the song explains,
"tomorrow's another day, and I'm thirsty anyway, so bring on the rain"
