Crying is not just about shedding tears..

I always thought that being frank was good. You said what you felt. You meant what you said. You liked someone, you'd let them know. You hated someone, you'd let them know too. There was never an implicit meaning to the things that you said. But then, I guess I was wrong.

I don't know why, but keeping your emotions to yourself seems to be the 'cool' thing to do. Anyone who wears his feelings on his sleeves is termed as a 'sentimental' or an 'emotional' fool. So much so that anyone who is even remotely emotional is always reminded of his shortcoming and is told to be stronger and tougher. It's a quality of the weak and the timid, these self-proclaimed doctorates of psychology would add.

Other people, have a particular aversion to the 'senti' type as they would say. This aversion, in my opinion, stems not just from the fact that these 'senti' people are true to their inner being, it's also because of the fact that they force others to ask a question to their inner emotional beings. The emotional being which has been suffocated to unconsiousness in some and to a demise in others.

People try so hard to suppress their emotions that they keep building up the heap and when this frustration reaches over the hill it vents itself out on someone totally undeserving. It's obvious that these people are the one's who are the most upset and irritated with life because anyone without an emotional vent eventually does turn into a monster ball ready to explode at the slightest of provocations.

Some people are so emotionally insensitive that they hardly ever realize the good from the bad, the beautiful from the ugly, the scent from the stink. They are more like a dead brain in a living body, living their lives just for the heck of it. Dont bare your soul in front of one of these entities, because all you would get from them is a blind, condescending and an apathetic look.
