I was just reading barely floating's post "Darth Vader and I" and ran across this quote by labug...

It seems this has merit for you, if so, why?
You're holding back Lake Mead and have been since you started on this journey. Emotions aren't good or bad they just are. The thought of feeling them can be scary but as we do it little be little it becomes less so and our lives become more peaceful.
I was thinking about my problem with this myself a lot the past couple of days. I'm sad, often and deeply, but I'm starting to...run out of tears. My emotions are just as strong as they have been all along, but I seem to be forgetting how to cry, and sometimes that really feels like the best thing I could do. I feel like I'm holding back Lake Mead, and I don't want to anymore. I'm not sure what the problem is, but if anyone could give me some hints on how I can let myself hurt and get it out, I'd appreciate it...I don't want this all bottled up inside me any longer...
