Healing Waters

"Don't ever discount the wonder of your tears. They can be healing waters and streams of joy. Sometimes they are the best words the heart can speak."


This quote is from one of my all time favorite books, The Shack.  This quote came to mind for today's blog because I'm a crier.  I'm that girl that cries when watching every movie and even when I read some books.  That's just how it is.


Well today I watched a movie that, not surprisingly, made me cry.  But this time it was different.  You see, in my book, there are four levels of crying:

1. Slightly choked up/teary eyed.
2. Sniffly
3. The Ugly Cry
4. One Big Epic Fail

Now when I'm talking about number four, I mean crying so hard that its absolutely embarrassing and if anyone were to see you at this stage, they would think something had gone terribly wrong.  Unfortunately, I reached stage four today when I watched the movie Letters to God.  If you have not seen it, GO SEE IT NOW!  This movie was truly inspiring and uplifting.  It was a movie that made you laugh, cry, and really think and look deep inside yourself.  


So go watch this movie!  Pop some popcorn, gather your family, and enjoy this movie together.  But don't forget your box of tissues!! :)
