Yesterday i was sitting in the balcony watching neighbor's son crying. For the last several days i have noticed that this child use to cry loudly always and thereby disturbing himself ,his parents and others. As a little child he can cry loudly and will succeed in geting whatever he wants. But as an elder one when we grow up we cry silently to forget what we like. That is the life.

Wow...this saying really touched me. An adult cry silently to forget what they like. That's why many says that being a child is blissful. Therefore, we must learn to live a life full of joy and happiness. Know what we want to achieve, so we may find success in the journey of our life!

Yes you are absolutely right.Whatever i have said is the fact of life. As a child everything is excusable to us but as a major the same can not be. Society looks at us as a matured person and they expect the act of mature from us, otherwise we are supposed to be the funny fellow. We have to be very very careful. Anyway thanks a lot for the response and sharing.

Yes, when we cry very loud we will look like hysterical and we would look like "crazy or desperate". As much as possible we will hide the feelings that we are hurt over some matters. That's life.

Yes you are correct. One should not hide his feelings but be open so that the others should know what you are facing. Otherwise we get suffocated and it is dangerous to us only. Similarly there are chances of looking somewhat odd or crazy by the said act so just try to avoid.Thanks for the good response. Be in touch and share.

You are welcome, I see some people how they cry LOL. sometimes, I wish that I can cry that way too.. like.. whaaaaaa..... whaaaaaaaa. (silence). whaaaaaa.... silence again. hahaha I know that is more physically exhausting but, it is really good burst of feeling. when I cry i just weep. that's why it takes longer for me to finish and let go of the pain.

Kids is so blissful and they have all the freedom. They get what they want by crying out loud. They don't think about tomorrow or what will happen the next day. They are so free and lucky. But as we grew older we have responsibilities not only for ourselves but for people around us. We can't get what we want by crying. And yes we cry just to forget everything we don't want to remember.

Yes you're right, kids are wild and free and they can express theirselves freely and one thing I want from kids they're not professional liars because they're made to tell the truth.

Hi roshigo. Once I met a scientist during my internship. He used to talk a lot. And once he said something that I still remember. He was talking about how difficult it is for someone in research & development of a company to persuade the executives to provide for research. And then he said that the secret to get it done is by crying, just like a baby cries. Ir is not something you should be embarrassed off. If you cry inside nothing will happen. Cry out loud and you will get what you want. Have a nice day ... =SuperShames=

Yes you are very very right. Being a human being a God has given us full right to get whatever we want in a proper,decent manner. Crying inside of no use at all as nobody will realize, but when you cry openly then the notice will have to be taken by somebody at least and your work,task is easier. Thanks for the response.

Hi roshigo. I am happy that you understood that. One can learn a lot from what the elders say, no matter how much we feel ourselves superior than themselves. And this is what I realized when I met that scientist. Anyways have a nice day and thanks for spreading out good thoughts here on mylot...

yes, Because we are adult, we can get what we want by speak it out or work hard for it. Babies cry for they have no other choice. But we adults are able to strive for what we desire.

First of all welcome to mylot. Please be in touch and go on sharing. Thanks for the response.Whatever you have said is very correct. As an adult we are able to manage the things and situation. We find the way out or suitable solution too which the kids can not not. The only option left with them is to cry and demand and they are applying the same.

When one is young one can blackmail adults to get what one wants, but you are right, once one grows up, it is more common to cry silently and people have to know us well to even notice what might be happening.

How I really wish to become a child once again. Yes, like what you wrote here- crying out loud to attract attention and to get what we want- just crying out loud then everyone will come to our rescue. How I wish that I can still do the same thing...lols.

After reading your post, I truly agree that being a child surrounded by parents' love is one of the best time in our life. As we grow, we learn that life is not a bed of roses. We have to earn to get what we want. If the thing is too expensive and we have limited finance, we have to sacrifice it for some other necessities and priorities. This sadness is kept silently in our heart. However, I always believe we should tap our full potential to achieve the best in life!

I don't even really think that it is appropriate for a child to cry loudly once they are old enough to start expressing their desires for themselves. I know that when it came to my children, they were never given what they wanted because they were crying from the time that they were able to talk. However, I do think that you are right that when we are adults, it is really viewed as inappropriate to cry in many situations. Yes we will still cry when we are really hurt, but we don't cry because we aren't getting our way.

You are right, we can't cry loudly; but at times situations come and we do cry; you know face is our mirror; looking at the face any one can tell if one is happy.. 7 days ago my grandson suffered from severe loose motion and vomiting, i could not sleep, was so sad; at present he is my best friend, clings to me most of the time Thanks for sharing

That is the simplest way to interpret how one cries when he is still a child compared to an older person. And I guess, when we do grow older, we are more aware of others being affected by the noise we create and we really do not want to be noticed. And yes, we sometimes cry to ourselves, taking all the pain alone.

It's like an irony of life or a paradox? should I say. Maybe the reason why we started to cry silently is because of our pride,our responsibility. We don't want other people know that we cried because we can't have what we wanted or because were hurt. As much as we can we wanted to hide our true emotions. When were a child we cried out loud because we are confident enough that our parents will give what we want for they don't want other people think that they can't give, I mean...it's touching the ego of our parents. But, it's not all the time true but most of the time. You've said that we cry silently to forget what we like. I think in this part as we grow old we became more responsible and selfless we aren't selfish anymore like when we're a child but we are selfless., we think our self less.

that's true. i seldom cry. and when i cry, i make sure no one can hear me or see me. i don't usually show my emotions to others.

Are you saying that if someone cries loudly they get what they want? Because my daughter and my son both cry really loud and neither of them get what they want even as babies they don't get what they want. It's call self control and children don't have it at all till yes they are older but even as adults we know how to work people even with out crying loudly. Tears are and expression of pain, angry, or sadness a normal human emotion that children have to express. When adults are around children you can say no to them even if they are upset with you it's part of life and letting them cry it out is good for them.

Hi friend, you are right, my kids always do the same thing, they will cry in a louder voice to achieve their desire, it is really hard to cool down a crying child, so we are in need to fulfill their desires, as you mentioned we don't have the ability to cry loudly and keep our sorrows within ourselves

Yes we cry in silence because some of us are ashamed that someone may feel pity for us and we do not like it. Babies do not have a choice but to cry and they cannot speak and utter what they want unlike adults.

only child cries out loud but we can also cry out loud if we really need to loosen all those bad feelings our anguish for something or for someone.. but as an adult we really try hard to hide our feelings because we don`t want someone to notice us crying or feeling bad..
