I am an emotional being - I cry when I am happy & sad,...it is cleansing and there is a feeling of relief afterwards - better out than in! (my opinion)
Tears are also a form of prayer - sometimes when too overwhelmed to pray, just let the tears flow - He sees that too
"You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book" (Psalm 56:8)
