Boy's Don't Cry

I still remember when i was a teeny-tiny baby, i used to cry whenever my mother was not around. And people used to tell me that boy's don't cry. I had no clue why they said this. I still don't. God intended to create a balance between the two sexes. One was built physically strong and the other mentally. Each of them is not complete without the other.They complement each other. But somehow the way people look at it is entirely different. Boy's are not supposed to melt. It does not look good.Girls cry all the time. You know what, it does not matter what sex are you, it's all about how deeply you were attached with something that is no more or on the verge of destruction. How damn close to your heart it was ! I am not saying crying is the way out of everything bad happening to you. It's just that there are times when you are overwhelmed with emotions, you just can't escape it.

There was a time when I used to play football. I started in my second year in college and soon found out that i was so in love with it. The time in the evening when we used to practice in our hostel premises was no doubt the best thing through out the day for me. Then we used to put the lights on as we still always had the energy t0 play more even after the sun said goodbye.
I so wanted to play for my hostel team. And I could have achieved that but god had other plans. I developed a severe pain in my chin a month before the event. The doctor said you have a muscle tear and excessive running is not good for you. Ever again.I was so broke. It even became difficult to watch my friends play without me.I felt so low.It was a tough time.But they say that boy's don't cry.

Our parents do so much for us. They sacrifice a lot of things for us. They love us more than anything. They work hard all their life to support us. So that we can have everything we wish for.My parents were always there when i needed them. I couldn't have asked for anything more. But then came a time when they needed me and I couldn't be there. They said you need to be at the place you are to settle down. Take your time son. Don't worry. It felt really bad. And all that they have done for me came flashing back to me. Damn circumstances ! But they say that
boy's don't cry.

Have you ever been in love ? Have you ever believed in a person more that yourself ? Has someone changed the way you look at things ? Has someone made you a better human being ? And what if that person is like a thousand miles away from you ! And what if you don't get to see that person everyday. It's difficult. You have to feel it to know it. But it's damn difficult. And sometimes it goes full throttle. You loose it. But they say that boy's don't cry.

It's an unfair world. Some don't even have the money to buy food and others buy and waste more than that.Some don't even have the money to buy cloths and others buy and use once.Some can't afford education and others take it as fun.And when I see those unfortunate ones, it makes me sad. Very sad.But they say that boy's don't cry.

@Bro,

We all go through such hard times where no reason is good enough to console us and at that point one may loose his control over the emotions for a while.

Even after crying, one is left is a vaccum where one feels nothing is good in this world and the world is so unfair.

I am totally with you that when parents need us and we are not there, it feels very bad..

But don't you worry, all things good or bad comes to an end and these hard times will go away and will give you 1000 reasons to cheer about.

you always rock bro!!
