every bodily function makes sense, except crying. when you drink water, you pee. when you eat, that also comes out, and when you drink too much, you puke. those all make sense, but when we are sad, liquid leaks from our eyes? wtf.

"Scientists have discovered that the emotional tears contain higher levels of manganese and the hormone prolactin, and this contributes in a reduction of both of these in the body; thus helping to keep depression away. Many people have found that crying actually calms them after being upset, and this is in part due to the chemicals and hormones that are released in the tears."

oh, ok :) the world makes sense again. (until the next thought i cannot proces comes along.)
