Tears of JOY... OH BOY!!
Permalink  
 

I enjoyed 'tears of joy' again today. Feel so grateful for that.


I used to not be able to cry, only if I were 'blacked out' with anger. Only in the past few months, have I been blessed with the gift, that just a few precious times, I have burst into beautiful happy smiling tears with gratitude. Today was one of those days. Heard a Rock love song on the radio and it was like I was singing it to my HP, and He was singing it back to me. I was driving through town bawling my head off and smiling at the same time.... LOL People at the stoplights may have thought me a bit mental....  :o)


It was a beautiful experience, better than any drug could EVER make me feel.

Hi Joni,

I sooooo envy you that! Good for you. When I stopped drinking so many emotions that I had drunk away came flooding back to me. I was so tearful it was crazy. Even adverts on TV would set me crying, but as yet, I haven't had pure tears of joy. I can't wait for that to happen.

Have a great weekend.

Love and hugs,

Q
