At my first meeting (before the meeting actually started) and saying I was a newcomer and being greeted so warmly, that's when I started to cry when I realized I was not alone.

There have been a lot of meetings where my eyes have stayed dry, others where stories have caused the tears to flow and over the past couple of weeks, my tears have flowed quite freely both listening and sharing.

Everyone is different and it is no sign of weakness in fact, to me, it's a sign that the healing has started, the feelings are no longer being stuffed down and it's OK to cry.
