I learned recently that Lamenting is a very important aspect of our spiritual and emotional health. I find that I lament a lot but most people see it as complaining. I have these deep passions inside of me regarding justice etc. and sometimes it becomes so pent up I just have to release it in writing in any way I can; thus a lament.

I'd like to hear your laments. Let it out. This should be a safe place to vent about those things that just make you wince inside. Feel free to go at it. I wont judge you.
