I used to never be able to cry a few years ago. Now I cry at everything, a sad tv commercial, a movie (I blubbered through Titanic recently). I actually feel better after a good cry. But then I have to clean my glasses, and look like a strawberry for the next hour. I don't cry because I am sad or feeling bad for myself. Then there are good tears, but that is another long story lol!

" I cry for all kinds of reasons and I have no shame about it whatsoever. It's natural. I have been given shit before from people for crying....fuck 'em....they have the issue, not me.

There is nothing wrong with crying!

*Sobs*

" I hardly ever cry. Honestly, I can't remember the last time I cried. I have NEVER cried during any movie, television show, commerical etc. Songs make me think but never cry. Disappointments in life make me sad but don't shed tears over them. The only time I cry is when I hit rock bottom and feel like my end is near and within my own hands. That has not happened in years. I am blessed to be stabled, loved and cared for. I may sound cold-hearted or lacking of feelings/emotions but I do have a heart. I feel things like everyone else but don't waste my energy on crying over negative things that I can't control. "
