And as the story goes, Rapunzel’s prince fell from the tower and went blind. Rapunzel lost her long hair and was exiled away. Ultimately, they found each other again. Rapunzel’s tears fell upon his eyes and her tears gave him back his sight. They lived happily ever after, after all. That is the part of the story I can witness to now, that our tears might turn into balms with which we heal each other and comfort each other, after so many years of getting it all wrong.
