I admit it.
I teared up during
ENDGAME.
We cry during emotional movies
because of oxytocin,
which makes us feel more connected with the
characters
while increasing levels of empathy, altruism and even
fulfillment.
Are we weak if we cry
during a movie?
Empathy makes us better,
stronger human beings.
Crying at a movie
is also a great way
to untangle some
of your own emotions
through the characters
onscreen.
And since it's only a movie,
you don't have to deal
with any lasting effects.
You have a nice cry,
you feel better,
and credits roll!
The empathetic souls
have their hearts broken
frequently by movies
and
books or people.
They tend to heal
and rebound faster,
making them
stronger people
in the longer run.
DO YOU TEAR UP

While I have empathy for human beings, animals are what makes me cry in the movies.
ReplyDeleteMe, too. I will not see a dog movie because of that!
