What are the things that make you cry?

I have just read something a friend of mine wrote for her birthday. It was very heartwarming and I shared most of the thoughts she shared. I laughed at some of what she said but tears also fell as I read further. I find myself usually crying over touching things I read (a poem, an essay, a certain passage in a book, etc.), songs with lyrics I can identify with and sad movies I watch. I also often cry when I see how much injustice is done to poor children in various parts of the world via news reports and photos. How about you? What tugged at your heartstrings lately?

thoughts about my grandmother who passed away 4 years ago...i still remember how she suffer from cancer, thoughts about my parents...i miss them so much, overwhelming scenes in a movie, the story of "one liter of tears", and many more... i don't know why but i think i am a sentimental one...i am easily affected by sad moments , overwhelming moments...and easily cry with other people... seeing a mother crying for her child...really makes me cry... and last thing...onions makes me cry! just kidding! :-)

Thoughts of my father (who passed away 9 years ago) also makes me teary-eyed most of the time. I think I'm also very sentimental. Heck, I even cry at sad movie endings even when I only started watching in the middle of the story! ;p Yeah, moms crying for their children gets to me too. Oh, and so do onions! LOL

The things always make me cry is when my parent or someone try to sacrify for me.I can stop myself from thinking and cry when i remember it back.It is easily to tear my eye and make my heart cry.I appreciate for all what they have done for me and believe one day i will get to sacrify back for them.
