A movie has never made me cry. Im not saying that to sound macho or anything like that. It's just that, as much as I get into movies, I guess I always have a thought in the back of my head that it's not reality. Though I came very close to crying the first time I saw Braveheart.
One thing that could always potentially bring tears to my eyes is thoughts of death, sometimes you just stop and think that as wonderful and awesome as life is, it's so hard to believe that one day it's just going to all be over. Ive always been so fascinated with death, and I probably think about it more than I should. Ironically enough, I was closely reading the 'What do you think happens when you die?' thread early this morning while I was waiting for AC Units to kick back on during a fire alarm test I was doing. Im always so very interested in hearing peoples thoughts and point of views when it comes to death.Like Roy said though, stuff like this will always cause me to tear up but something personally bad has to happen for me to full on cry.
Im sure there are other times here and there, but there are 3 times that come right to mind where I had a full on, let it all out cry. The last time was last fall when my grandfather died (my first grandparent to pass). Before that was when my first REAL serious relationship ended, since then, like Roy said you kind of develop the relationship callus. And finally, the last one happened when I was 19, and it's also the only time any of my friends have really seen me lose it. A friend of mine that I had since junior high school died tragically at work in an electrically related accident. That was the first time I really had to personally deal with death and I really didnt know how to handle it.
and echoing the sentiments that Roy said, my condolences to everyone who has to deal with some kind of loss.
