Don't hold back

There's a story about a woman in such deep anguish that she goes to the temple to pray. She's there, pouring out her heart in words too painful to be uttered, in complete agony and a man walks in. He's in charge at this temple, you see, and he assumes that her strange behaviour is because she's been a little too friendly with the bottle.
So he stops her, chastising her for coming to the house of God in such a state. This dear woman then explains to him, that it is sorrow, not drink that is the reason for her state. The man realises his mistake and prays in agreement with her that God will answer her cry.
It's good when we tell the men in our lives how we feel. 'Cos honestly...they just don't get it sometimes! If you're in anguish or sorrow about your miscarriage, infant loss, or any issue at all and it's beginning to affect your attitude or actions then stop. open your eyes, look at your man and open your mouth.
I strongly believe that you both will be glad you did.
