When you cry, you always benefit from the release.

She ...Lynn, I think you and Joan misunderstood Mom. She is a stoic person, and we know Auntie E was very emotional but never once did Mom put Auntie E down for being a crybaby and I always found Mom to be very comforting when I was down. All these years I have turned to her for comfort and even though she has very short term memory, I still feel the need of her strength and probably always will. She is the necessary rock of our family and always a safe place to run to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2403846791673474817.post-2902043660587014582007-02-18T18:35:00.000-08:002007-02-18T18:35:00.000-08:00I always feel better after letting my emotions out...I always feel better after letting my emotions out whether it's crying or just a gold old-fashioned rant.Iamthebookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04934763139219326067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2403846791673474817.post-14207227803610166552007-02-18T17:59:00.000-08:002007-02-18T17:59:00.000-08:00THanks for dropping by my blog!

This really struck a nerve with me...I've often felt that I was not a very strong person and many time I've felt less than adequate, as if I've somehow disappointed mom...now I think I understand why.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12994258976391146989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2403846791673474817.post-57804650508748424032007-02-18T08:18:00.000-08:002007-02-18T08:18:00.000-08:00Every time I see "The Eddie Duchin Story" on TV, I...Every time I see "The Eddie Duchin Story" on TV, I always think of you as I'm crying my eyes out. Maybe I need to see if it's on DVD so I can buy it, watch it, and get over myself much quicker.

There is nothing wrong with a good cry to clean out the soul. Always remember "Eddie Duchin's" movie wasn't a memorable one but it has always served us just fine in times of need for this purpose!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
