A Good Person was so unexpectedly amazing. It wrecked me, in that very beautiful way. Great recommendation!

You wanna get wrecked? LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL.

This one will release the mckrakin tears.

And I 100% agree that when we feel that off feeling and we start to ruminate to figure out why we feel under the radar sad, think no more! Just exlax the tears, its so good for us!

Just released some tears at the end of a much needed massage last week. No reason needed, just letting my body get unstuck.

OMG BEACHES!!! I forgot how much I loved that one. I've actually been performing this type of MEGA CRY ritual since I was a teen. Good to know I'm not the only one ;)

First of all, WHAT A GORGEOUS SHOT OF YOU AND QUICKIES!

As for emotional laxatives? The Last Unicorn. I can still hear Mia Farrow singing into the sea her longing to be wild and free again.

And while we’re at it, Beasts of the Southern Wild is packed with shivers and tears.

As if the roller coaster perimenopausal hormones aren't enough to make me cry!

Lots of memories from reading this post; especially the line about blush and bashful. Excuse me while I go grab the Kleenex ...
