What makes me cry

It's not heavy drama, it's not problems, it's not even heartaches that make me shed tears. It's good news and little acts of kindness.

Just a while ago, I was reading the news about Charice singing a duet with Celine Dion. Reading the news made me teary-eyed because I feel so happy for Charice.

Watching Oprah and her making people's dreams come true also make me cry. It's because in the world today, we always hear news about terror, crimes, corruption and such that sometimes I wonder if there is still goodness in this world.

I also remember watching Extreme Makeover House edition I think, that the episode had me in tears too.

So news about people doing good deeds for others, selflessly sharing themselves make me bawl like a baby. For example, if there is calamity and I hear news of people helping their fellowmen even to the point of risking their lives can fill my eyes with tears faster than a fully-opened faucet.

These acts made me realize that despite the current situation of the world, despite the unsecurity, despite the endless wars and battles, there is still hope. And that all the goodness has not thoroughly left this world.
