makes perfect sense, el..i feel the same way now. i tend to do my
crying when i'm not around others but if it happens, its honest and i don't
apologize either...fortunately, my life has blossomed with
awakened k..and i've attracted people around me..even my boss ..who
if i happen to on a very odd occasion well-up....they don't mind one
bit...its very liberating...:)
love..
