No, the Weekly Question is not about singing. Yet.

It’s about crying. Why crying? Because this song, with its wonderful lyrics, makes me want to cry. And so does a lot of other things.

So here goes the Weekly Question Number 16:

What makes you cry?

My answer:

There are a lot of things that make me cry:

• When one of my children is hurt, I cry.

• When I hear sad love songs and watch a sad movie, I cry.

• When I watch something sentimental, even a television commercial, this makes me cry.

• When I hear wonderful comments for me and not-so wonderful comments, I cry.

• Even emails with heart-wrenching lessons and life stories make me cry.

• I  cry usually when I am frustrated like when I lost all my photos during the WordCamp Philippines 2008 event yesterday. All photos of the lectures I attended were there. I just didn’t have the opportunity to do that because there were a lot of people.

• Pretty much a lot of things make me cry. I will not deny this. I don’t want to watch some TV shows because these make me cry.

I cry silent tears.

I sniffle.

What about you? What makes you cry?
