Blood and Tears

 
Just like you let your menstrual blood flow , why don't you let your tears just go?

We know our menstrual blood is part of our divine feminine power
We accept it with grace and maturity
We don't mourn our lost blood every month
Because we know it must go, it has served its purpose
Once we let go, we can rebuild

Why then do we not treat our tears the same way?
Why don't we offer our tears the same space, the same grace that we offer our menustral blood?

Rather than stopping its flow,  hiding it,denying it
Why don't we just offer it a place to go?

They are both come from deep within us
They are both born from hope,  from life
Both result from life that didn't happen

So, embrace them both
For they are divine reminders that somethings have served their purpose
And we must honor them by letting them go with grace
