I Can't Cry

I know it has been a LONG time since I wrote last.  I have a couple unfinished posts, an unfinished new website, and all sorts of other things to share with you.  But for now, I need to share that I can't cry.

Seems like a dream maybe for some of you.  And it was a dream of mine I think when I was younger.  I was always crying.  And always shouldn't have been.  Or at least that's the message I got from others.  Especially the lovely "Stop crying or I'll give you something to cry about."  I had no right to cry, no reason.  And at some point I turned off the tears.  I don't remember when.  If it happened when I started taking depression medication when I was 11, or when I was a teenager and had to be grown up, or when I was an adult (because adults never cry).  But somewhere along there a dam was built behind my eyes, and the tears rarely leak through anymore. 

And it's not the wonderful thing I thought it would be.

    My name is Kathryn Long

    I am sensitive introvert who is recovering my artistic side and uncovering and finding the courage to be the person I came here to be.  I firmly believe that our differences make us stronger, our similarities bring us together, and our love connects us into one big messy, complicated, amazing family!
