One who Cry, can be the Strongest

I am not a big fan of bollywood movies but still some movies are so emotional that I cried when I watched them, but my friends always say why are you crying, what happened to you and I never had an answer. I didn't know why I cry whenever I see some emotional movie or listen any sad song. People say its because something similar to this movie had happened in your life that's why you were crying, but according to my memory nothing bad happened in my life and still I cry on every emotional sad song.

                  The song that always make my eyes wet is "Agar Tum Sath Ho" from movie named "Tamasha" and the best movie is "Sanam Teri Kasam" which made me cry for approx one hour and I didn't know the reason, I was just crying.

          Finally, as now I knew the reason, I would like to share it to all those emotional people who think that they are too weak to live in this world, are actually the strongest people in the world and who can make this world a better place. Its like an answer to all the questions related to any emotional person, given by a foreign blogger "Ossiana Tepfenhart". Just read it, you'll understand why you are better than others and why this world needs you...

Pass me a tissue, please...

I'll admit it: I cry during movies... and books, music, and podcasts. Depending on how my hormone levels are, I might preemptively grab tissues and just watch the movie alone.

Though a lot of people smirk when they see me watch movies in tears, I'm really fine with it. Truth be told, people who cry over movies tend to have something that a lot of others haven't really cultivated: Empathy

It takes a special type of person to have empathy. Many people out there — narcissists and sociopaths, for example — are born without it and live their entire lives without ever really putting themselves in other person's shoes. This means they can't really feel for other people. Though a lack of empathy could come in very handy for a used car salesman, it's not always a good thing.

Actually caring about others' situations takes strength — a lot of it. Life is brutal to some people and if you're able to actually put yourself in someone else's shoes and feel that pain, it says something about you.

You're strong enough to actually withstand that pain, but to feel it nonetheless. You're strong enough to be strong for others. You're strong to the point that you understand where they're coming from and are able to actually feel what they're feeling.

It's never a wimpy thing to actually care for another person, even if that person is a fictional character in a movie. It shows that you actually have a heart, and that it's a heart that can break itself for others. Though it can be broken, by the end of the movie, you know it's been patched back together.

Being able to recover that quickly says something else about people who cry during movies: they can bounce back like no one else's business, and are strong enough and smart enough to actually separate reality from fiction.

Maybe it's not the kind of strength that most people think about when they think of a strong person, but it's the most important kind of emotional strength: empathy. And to a point, intelligent acuity it takes to cry at a movie is something you really can't deny.

Even if we aren't lifting 100 pounds, we are exploring our emotions, and that can lift our spirits higher than anything else out there and this can make us more strong to live in this world in a better way than others.
