crying can be a funny thing

I know , I know, when you see this title you will question my thought. But hold on , let me explain. I understand, when we are born we are made to cry, is that sad or funny? When you slip in public in front of Macy's on Christmas eve, is that sad or funny? when you are at a comedy show and the comic is tearing it up and tears are strolling down your face please tell me that's funny, when you are watching a show with your friend in a theater or your home and you start tearing up ,crying, is that funny? How about watching a movie with a cynical friend, a lifetime movie and you start crying is that funny to you? no, but is it funny to your friend?, maybe. In my case --definitely yes, as my friend found out the other day when some no title movie came on and they started to cry at certain moments of the movie and I knew this because they always headed to the bathroom , really,why? I called them out on it and there response which is typical was ------shut up. Yes , I ask ,are you crying? and I am told to Shut Up, that is funny shit.... I see so much hurt and pain in this world , in my world, its tough out there, every corner I turn, I run into someone in pain, someone in need, someone displaced, some one who lost a job , someone who lost a loved one and the list goes on and on and I feel their pain , I see their pain cascading down there cheeks with tears, everyday , morning, noon and night, so I wanted to share this thought that crying could be, should be a funny thing, .... The greatest moment I could ever have would be to see more tears brought on by joy and happiness rather than by hurt and pain ,,,now that would be a funny... funny.... wonderful thing .day 5
