Not Crying

Michael Jackson’s death has been making it’s influence world wide as you see hundreds of fans crying and talking about how his music impacted their lives and how they’ll never be another Michael Jackson.

I myself couldn’t find it inside me to cry. I’m not surprised that I wouldn’t cry because I just didn’t know Michael Jackson personally. More importantly though, I realized that I’m just not the type of person that cries.

I think its because of the way I was raise that I lack the ability to cry when I should be crying. Its a bit scary at times thinking how I really couldn’t see myself crying at either of my parents deaths or the death of a close friend. The reason I think I wouldn’t cry is because I don’t think crying solves anything.

Crying is suppose to help you express pain/sorrow but really I think its my male instinct that makes crying so difficult. It isn’t really about being a man, but how crying doesn’t accomplish anything. Really I feel like taking action or understanding why you should or shouldn’t be feeling a certain way gives reason as to why you should cry.

Sincerely, Hector Guzman
