worthy of tears

You have a most fortunate heart and are not afraid to show the feelings that reside within. Those close to you ought but count themselves fortunate to know you.
As much as this sounds strange but:

The lack of showing tears or the inability to cry is not a sign of strength. I have not since I was 14 been able to do so and now am 37. Having seen the face of war and all its misery, death and destruction, attending the funerals of close family and friends, and dealing with all the stresses of life, I can not weep or show my tears of my soul's sarrow. It is not something that marks me as being strong. And yet though I know it in my mind that this is wrong, my pride stands as a barrier.

Count as a blessing that you have the courage to show your feelings. And if there is anyone that would dare to ridicule you for it, they would be among the ignorant not worthy of your tears
