Unlock the vault and let them in

I'm done with For One More Day and I got teary in the train, fuck =,= The story kept reminding me of my parent and people in my life, those that come and go. I'll share one last interesting quotes from the book since I'm starting with the next one already, Five People You Meet in Heaven.


When we lose our parent or someone significant for us, we will start to drift. We no longer have them to cushion the impact when life takes a fall towards the worst. There's no more outstretched hand ready for us to grab, saving us from the free fall and that will plunge us down to depravity. 

That, or we ourselves choose to lock them out of our lives. The society has taught us to keep our emotion in check and never revel anything much. Crying is a sign of weakness and we have been molded to act tough/masculine. We barricaded our heart because to leave it bare open for others to access it will leave us vulnerable.

Don't do that, please. Have some trust on others. They care for you and your well-being. Open up and share your deepest emotion. It will always help to lighten up your burden and helps you to be free.

Don't be afraid to be human.

Love
me
