2nd week of Lent, Friday – My Mom would often say…’Go ahead and cry, that’s why Gods gave you tears.’ She was a wise woman. Tears are salty water. The world has cried buckets of tears in answer to the pain of living. Join the world in its sorrow. Add some salt to your glass of water and consider your being part of humanity and sharing its collective pain. Drink the water as though years of tears.
