tonight i was watching an episode of "one tree hill". on that episode i stumbled upon this quote.
he who does not weep does not see ~ victor hugo
it was one of the saddest episode and all throughout that show i tried to hide my tears...
well okay i was teary-eyed but i was trying to hide it because my sister was there. the 16 year old one.
and then it came upon me. why should i hide my tears? why should i be ashamed to cry?
i'm a very emotional person. i wear my heart out for the whole world to see. everybody can tell if i'm sad or happy very easily.
i cry a lot. well if i'm sad i cry. just remembering a sad situation i cry.
at first i hated it. i feel like i'm so weak. why would i cry for that? why would i let this emotion into me?
i remembered i once cried reading paperbackwriter's post. i cried because every word she typed pierce through me. as if she was just there beside me pouring her hearts out.
i also remembered that i once cried when i was reading harry potter. yup i cried. i cried when siruis black died. i know it's only a fictional character but how would you feel when your only family died?
someone once told me that i have this characteristic where i always put myself in others shoe in able for me to understand them. i do that sometimes in order to understand them and in the process i understand more about myself.
i'm telling you it's not easy doing that. i tend to get so emotional. it hurts and it's difficult. but at the same time i can see and understand better.
maybe victor hugo saw that. in every tears we cry, in every pain we felt even if it's not our own we can see and understand the what that pain is.
i know i may be young and does not have the experience most pain that people here experienced.
but i tell you one thing... i feel it and i cry for it...
i do not ignore the tears. i do not ignore the pain and sadness.
it makes us human after all...
holy shit. i'm crying just typing this...
keep on blogging!!!

beautiful post, kapatid, simply beautiful....
....I love the quote, first time I read it....I have not had the chance to read Victor Hugo´s Les Misérables; it is one of those books I look forward to relishing when I do get to the point of reading it....
I cried when I read that part of the HP series. I had already an inkling it will be Sirius Black nonetheless I still I cried. Perhaps you have read a bit of JK Rowling´s biography, and how her mom´s death ( succumbed to a decade´s battle with multiple sclerosis) greatly afffected her writings on HP. It was what made her an admirable writer, I suppose, being open to her emotions. Did you know she cried as a documentary was being filmed about her life? She broke down as the film crew shot a scene with her revisiting the home she had with her daughter when they were barely surviving.
You see, you are in great company.

beautiful blog queenie. I am a crier too, though like you sometimes I hide my shiny eyes. -
quietone said on Feb 18, 2009....
yup a crier too... I also hide the eyes and wipe the tears. If people don't "feel" what is there? It would be a very cold world. {{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}} queenie... you go ahead and cry. -
queenparanoia said on Feb 18, 2009....
uniquely: i guess we want to hide it... but we really cant... so cry on... ''im just here... ;-)
quietone: the world would be cruel if there's no one there that cries...

Don't tell anyone Queenie, but I cry at chick flicks. They our tears cleanse our soul, I think that's true. -

Queen I cry a lot to. -
Hegemone said on Feb 18, 2009....
Queenie, sounds like you're very in touch with your emotional self. That's a good thing. I personally think that it takes a strong person to be open with their emotions, to feel that they don't want to hide them. I've adopted that attitude. If I'm going to cry, it's for a good reason, it's because I'm feeling somebody's pain or my own and emotions are being expressed. Why should I feel ashamed of feeling an emotion? Why should I feel ashamed of FEELING! So good for you! -

qp - i cry sometimes too. i even cry over really STUPID things sometimes. i cry lots when i'm happy - don't ever let anyone tell you that you're too sensitive. i've heard that one and it really sucks. -

mobil: awww here's a tissue... yore right it cleanses our soul... ;-)
msstar: we'll cry together... ;-)
hegemone: if i ignore that part of me it then i wouldnt grow up. sometime it's hard doing it but i'm living my life for the present and one thing of doing that is being in touch with my own emotions... :-)
fraggle: sometimes i hide when i cry. some people just won't understand. and yeah it sucks when people think your weak just because your sensitive...
holly: hey girl i miss you! where have you been? how's your health lately? i hope youre feeling better nw! i miss you!!!

pleasantskies said on Feb 18, 2009....
I relate a lot to what you wrote. I watched this movie the other night and every time I see it I cry because the parts where certain people die are so heartbreaking. It was the Poseidon Adventure. I can get real emotional as well. Putting yourself in others pain, it's called empathy. That is something everyone should strive for. I hate to admit I cry when I'm not emotional in the moment, because I feel like I'm admitting I'm weak and I don't like anyone pitying me ever. Great post.

wombat said on Feb 18, 2009....
Watched a video of why people cry on a news kind of blog today, and it seems that people (humans) will cry to release something, even in sadness or joy, and releasing that is good. Cry me a river....we all have an inborn trait of emotion, and when we cry, we cry as one. In joy, in pain, in the abundance of humanity. -

crying cleanses ones soul... -
MissMimi said on Feb 18, 2009....
It's a double edged sword, this being very emotional and highly sensitive to others. Like you, I feel others' pain, and my own very keenly, and I cry easily. There have been many times when I've wished I could toughen up. But you know what, queenie? The world needs people like us. I think it makes us good listeners and good friends. -
crudebusinessman said on Feb 18, 2009....
though I dont seem like the type I did cry during the movie welcome home roscoe jenkins
