Tears as Sacred Water

Tears are more than a release; they are offerings. Every tear carries memory, energy, and spirit. They hold gratitude, grief, relief, joy, and the silent prayers our words cannot reach.

When we cry, we are not just emptying; we are offering. Tears return to the earth, salt upon soil, encoding our stories in ways our ancestors understood. Across cultures, tears have been honored as sacred water; expressions of devotion, surrender, and love.

Think about it: our bodies are mostly water, and every fluid holds deep meaning. Tears are perhaps the most honest of them all, born in moments when our hearts overflow. They ground us in ceremony, mark our rituals of release, and initiate us into new states of being.

To cry is to cleanse. To cry is to honor. To cry is to offer.
