Hiding everything inside

Since I was a little girl, I always thought that it's normal to hide your every emotion inside. That it's normal not to show people around you that you are hurt, sad. That it's shameful to cry in front of people, cause that's what makes you vulnerable in their eyes. And when the times come they will use your every weakness against you. But what I thought is that I need to hide my feeling from everyone. My family, my friends, even my own sister. Keeping all those emotions inside of me, every tear, every scream that wanted to come out wasn't making me feel better. But on the contrary, it made me feel even worse.

The point of it is that you need to show your emotions not only to people you love but to everyone. You need to tell people if you just don't feel like doing something. That your sad, happy, angry, excited.  You need to share all those emotions. And when that day comes, when you will not keep anything inside, I promise you will feel so much lighter and so much happier, than you from the beginning.
