Teardrops of Emotions: A Change from Tears of Sadness, to Tears of Happiness, Overcoming Depression & Anxiety

Teardrops of Emotions: A Change from Tears of Sadness, to Tears of Happiness, Overcoming Depression & Anxiety

For me, Life is like a rose. Sometimes, we feel that we are alone & lonely, so we feel the we should close up & keep our problems to ourselves, but eventually, after the drought, there is a rain & shower of positivities that will make us realize that, in every simple problem, there is always a solution when we open them up so we can ask for help & guidance, instead of keeping the problems to ourselves, why not try & share it to those close friends, family member, relatives that might help us overcome those problems? After releasing all the problems, it feels so much better. It feels that we bloomed like a beautiful rose, thankful to those who helped us transform the #teardrops of sadness, to #tearsofjoy .

When I was a kid way, way back, i always have this fear of mine of not having friends, not being able to adjust to their standards, the thought of being alone and having no friends at school, was one of the fears I always am thinking about,

I was not friendly before either, maybe because I grew up in a neighborhood where I couldn’t catch up with friends because I feel really shy & I lack confidence. Even at school, whenever I would recite, after talking, I immediately sit down & cover myself in a notebook!

And from time to time, I am introduced to new friends, but I tend to be over acting when hanging out with them, because I really am not used to having friends, so they tend to choose other friends over me, which for me, is a totally big deal as a child, I remember I would cry & let my tears drop as I see my friends choosing others over me. I just thought that the fear of being alone, would just be a part of my childhood memory, but I never expected it would also be a part of my elementary days aswell.

During elementary I met so many friends, but as Our friendships become closer, they had to transfer to different schools, which made me really anxious.

I graduated elementary days, and when I was in High School there came so many changes, here I have met friends that gave me life lessons that had a huge impact on my life.

I met a friend, and I was told by that friend that, “if you really have friends, they will accept you for who you are, because remember, you can’t please everybody, they chose you as a friend because you are you. You’re unique, always remember that.” I still remembered how I slowly realizing, that I was not showing my true self, that I was shy in showing my personality, because I might get left behind just like before, but I also realized that my friend was right, so I started all over again, I introduced myself to my friends, as the wacky, talkative & energetic & emotional person I am , and now, I am thankful that I have friends by my side, it’s like the rose was showered with so much blessings & it bloomed beautifully.

Now, I everytime that I would cry because of friends, it is not tears of sadness, instead it is now tears of joy! Because those teardrops are the proof that my friends accepted me for who I am, the wacky, the talkative, the emotional me.

It feels good to know, that the tear drops that once was full of sadness, became teardrops full of hapiness.
