am I sad or am I crying

r.k

By Ruhani KhadijahPublished about 15 hours ago 1 min read

Am I sad or am I just crying, their is no point denying that i'm crying

But does that mean sad or does that mean undying

That deep breath that you take after a whole session of crying, expressing, relasing, cleansing and flowing it's like the louder and more intense version of that first breath a newborn takes when just leaving the yoniverse,

So am I sad or am I just rebirthing

Crying is like rebithing

As gross as it sounds but from the moment we're born, we're shedding.

Shedding new layers of self awareness new layers of our senses and our surroundings, everything we do sheds no matter how long it takes to get to the next layer, and sometimes the next layer is worst than the old one, or sometimes it can be even better, every time we cry we either feel better, less shit or even more shit, but no matter how we feel we made it, another layer has been exposed and has transitioned from old to the new.

It's what we do to accept, heal and release that layer to make it to the next and so on.

So not crying, but undying. What is undying? Undying is like rebithing, What is rebithing?

Rebithing is like transitioning and that is everything you are and more :)
