i hate it when i cry. my nose gets red, my upper lip swells, my eyes "turtle", and get all puffy. that said--it doesn't stop me. i'm tearing up just reading this page. "real" tears are cleansing. "onion" tears are not. a study was done to ascertain tear chemical content in both cases--the tears we shed in sorrow, empathy, grief, emotion, all have toxins in them that the body releases. onion tears? nope. real tears are truly a release, and good for us. it keeps us healthy. and our noses red. mine, anyways.

Love your quote emerald46.....and I've been a crier forever. My kids know what triggers my tears - Christmas songs, sad stories, happy stories, babies, soldiers,etc. I think it is healthy to show emotions.
