Is the world getting sadder or am I getting more emotional.

I find these days I cry at the slightest thing. There seems to have been such a lot of sad news recently all of which have made me cry and today the anniversary of Aberfan.

Beautiful music and good news also bring tears to my eyes.

I have had bad news from various friends which has made me tearful but I expect that is because we are reaching the age when bad things happen.

I remember my Dad was often brought to tears by small things.
Has anybody else found this?

Our Toyota showroom has just been refurbished too.

I don't cry easily now, the antidepressants I am on seem to dry up my emotions. We have a very sick son-in-law (terminal cancer) and I used to spend hours crying about it. He has no living parents and DH and I are the closest thing he has to parents and we love him dearly.
I don't cry over world events as there's nothing I can do about them so I try as much as possible to put them out of my mind.
I still think about Aberfan and I remember a couple of names. Sophie North comes to mind as I seem to remember that her parents split up after she died. RIP little ones
