When did you last cry ?

Hey, even big boys cry.

I was watching "One flew over the cuckoos nest"...one of my favourite books/films

Anyway...I just love the scene were Randalph McMurphy tries to lift the water platform.

We all know it's impossible........they all laugh.

He doesn't do it...cant do it.

But at least he tried.............

Gets me every time

Last time I cried was over the exceeding generosity of someone I've never met face to face.

I have been volunteering on an internet counseling line.
It is a secured site like a chat room but the only access is between a patient and counselor...
The site I'm involved in focuses not on the victims of the Haiti earthquake but on the psychological trauma absorbed by those involved in trying to help those victims...
A young nursing student...with her first hands on work with patients...is overwhelmed by the tragedy around her...she can't sleep for her nightmares...she feels guilty when she is told to rest...she has symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress (smells that aren't there, hearing voices where there are none, hallucinations, laughing at inappropriate times, crying for no reason)
I have been able to help by getting her sedatives so she can sleep, moving her from triage to patient assistance, setting up regular times to talk with me so she can debrief and let some of the horror she faces go.
When did I last cry?
When she said; "Thank you!"

I cried the other day.

I lost my brother this past June and my mother died in October.

I cry when I see something that reminds me of them.

The last time I cried was when the vicar of St. Margaret's Episcopal church moved away. His family showed me how truly open and accepting Christians could be. He and his wife had blessed a natural rock alter out back of my camp in the woods. On one of his last Sundays he read a poem about a rock alter. It did bring tears to my eyes.

Doesn't anybody have any "tears of joy" to add to this thread?

Mine were tears of joy, Bear.
