It's funny how Tisha B'Av came and went, and I didn't even feel particularly sad. I tried, but I didn't really feel it. Yet every other day I want to cry -- I cried myself to sleep one night the week before last. My guess is it's because I only read eicha and kinot yesterday...not the news.

"To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch...to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!" -Emerson

I know what you mean...Unfortunately we cannot control our emotional responses--if only we could, I would try *not* to cry when I do (e.g. in public settings, etc.).
