Most of us will never know what it feels like to run a mile in record time in front of a packed arena, but we can connect to what it feels like to work hard and achieve our own goals with the support of our lovely family and friends.
In my opinion we all come into this category.
We have been handed one of the toughest assignments there is.
Small wonder it brings us to tears at times.
I would also add that for those of us who have suffered childhood abuse and or neglect, a kind word (acceptance/applause) can trigger a tear or two.
That could well be embarrassing,
but is certainly not shameful.
It means that
"we know that our true worth has been recognised by another." (at last)
Well - how lovely is that?
Anybody out there who sees this post as a bit pathetic.....will be immediately booked in to a course in psychology.

(now where did I put my handkerchief..?)
