The very act of crying offers us more than just release; it can offer us clarity. Yet we live in an era when public crying is not just undervalued but actively mocked. Collective displays of sadness are dismissed as empty posturing, and emotional breakdowns are turned instantly into memes. Which is why we need to bring back the tear-jerker. An entire category of movie dedicated to enlisting Hollywood’s best talent in an effort to make you bawl unashamedly?

In fact, the one person Mr. Perry can’t seem to forgive, at least for a majority of his book, is himself. There is no positive byproduct of shame.” If you carry shame with you to heaven, heaven itself will feel like hell. Very few of us can understand the particular strain of shame that comes with the celebrity Mr. Perry attained. We continue to have our own versions of the conversation Mr. Perry had with his mother, looking for love and forgiveness from figures in our lives instead of locating these things within ourselves. We shouldn’t paint a life like Mr. Perry’s as fatally flawed or doomed from the start.

My children and I were visiting New York City’s most important landmarks, so naturally we began our journey at the Glossier flagship store in SoHo. Ever since 2014, those loyal to dewiness and glossiness have sought a consecrated place to pay homage to Balm Dotcom universal salve and Boy Brow grooming pomade. We believe beauty is about having fun, celebrating freedom, and being present, because no matter where you are in your beauty journey — YOU LOOK GOOD. The mirror in the Glossier flagship store would like a word. I expect to be miraculously transformed into a fresh-faced teenager, but in the mirror I discover a creased old crone with inexplicably neon-orange lips.
Heather Havrilesky“I’m almost opposed to diplomacy in interpersonal relationships, at least in intimate relationships, because when people handle each other the way that countries handle each other, it feels transactional. It doesn’t feel like just showing up and showing yourself. Everything in my life that’s good has come from being extremely honest and direct. You say things that sometimes upset or scare people, and you hear things that maybe make you question yourself and force you to grow. A lot of people who don’t want honesty are more rigid, less direct, more fearful of deep connections.
