A friend of mine once told me this -> "mas tatanungin ka nila pag umiiyak ka kesa pag tumatawa". My initial reaction - I just laughed and agreed on what he said without engaging to any line of reasoning. Afterwards, I realized that it is indeed true and just became aware of myself contemplating about it. Why do people has this impulse on turning their heads back whenever they see someone shedding some clear salty saline solution or simply known as "tears"??? Is it really out of concern or just out of curiosity? Each time I see a close friend, acquaintance or even a stranger weeping, I can't help but utter either one of these 1) Bat kaya sya umiiyak? or 2) Kawawa naman sya! I guess, most of you have the same reaction with mine, right (",)?
On the contrary, when someone is laughing out loud, we're not even bothered (unless, it's a monstrous laugh that will either scare you or disturb your precious moment) to ask why. Perhaps, the reason behind those unstoppable laughter is very much obvious, "happiness".
But, behind those tears... there may possibly be thousands of reasons...
Reasons which are only visible to eyes of the person who owns the tears...
Reasons which can not be revealed unless somebody asks either out of concern or out of curiosity...
Why am I spending time writing this? Simply because, right now, I'm trying to laugh out loud rather than answer people's questions if they see me cry...
