So often, we mistakenly respond to sadness with language such as, "stop crying" or "calm down" or "it could be worse!" In these moments, we often forget to consider the depth of emotions behind the tears. No matter how hard we try to suppress them, these uncomfortable emotions and painful experiences will inevitably come to the surface and present as anger. This story was written to help children and adults understand the importance of communicating emotions effectively and to allow uncomfortable emotions to come out before they pile beneath the surface for too long.
