If you are not hanging by a thread,
Perhaps meditation will help.
The tenderness of the heart is extremely vulnerable. How far are you willing to go into vulnerability? Any defense will gradually become a fortress and hide you from you, the innermost, impersonal you that feels some of the deepest human suffering. Our suffering is so important. When one accepts that the vulnerable is truly what unites us as human beings we can cry for the other as much, if not more, than we cry for ourselves. How deeply does your suffering go? Does it connect you to others? It can, but only if you are willing to allow it to flourish. What do I mean by that? Why do we cry? What is at its root? Will you take a good look? If you do, then you must be willing to change who you are.
